Chrysalis' defenses

As I enter the cave, I do not realize that Chrysalis saw me climbing up. Suddenly, twelve changelings come charging at me. I can tell that she had captured and corrupted them because I spot shackles on their front legs. I sigh to myself, since I don't have equipment with which to purify them. Pulling out my weapons, I open fire on the changelings. In minutes, the changelings have been shredded by my weapons. I am now covered head to hoof in blood and entrails. I put on my gas mask in order to cope with the horrid stench. Regardless of that, I am fighting to resist throwing up. Further into the cave, I can hear the panicked voice of Neighsay. It sounds as if he is in a fluid of some sort, because his voice sounds as if he is gurgling. Knowing that I am close, I run with all of my might.
