The Gift-giving Giant (after battle)

Humans... I'll separate the flesh from your bones...!

Santata's gut suddenly began to expand.

All of you! Hold your breaths!

Suddenly, a large figure leaped out of the dark and slammed what looked like a stake into Santata's gut.

Woaah?! 'T-tis a smell most foul...!

I-I think I'm about to pass out...

A scent of potently fetid refuse lingers...

Some Sinners drop to the floor, while the others gag profusely. Clearly, this was a rather painful experience for all.

This gas does not appear to be toxic. However, its scent seems to evoke... a rather extreme level of discomfort.

So you've defeated a northern giant... yet you don't seem to know the proper procedure for what to do afterward. Are you Hunters from the City?

Proper procedure?

Immediately before death, a northern giant's body fills with noxious gas before exploding in a rain of acid.

The man who staked Santata's gut explained as he approached us.

You have to puncture a hole in its gut to let out the gas before its internal organs condense it into acidic fluid. Allowing it to cause a chain reaction could... complicate things.
