[Seeing Zel burst from the water is only a partial relief. There's this hairy thing on his back, like someone stuck a bald old man's head on a green gibbon's body- it's hard for Emery to get a good look at it, but it's clearly trying its level best to claw Zel's eyes and tongue out.
Emery's gaze darts around the edges of a pond and he spots an elven-eared fairy running towards the village. Without thinking overmuch Emery dashes over and grabs them by the arm, pointing with his free hand towards the wrestling match going on in the pond.]
Hey! What is that!?
["I- I don't know, he looks like an earth fair-"]
No, the one on top!
["Eh? That's the guardian of the spring. He's angry, so I suggest you keep your distance!" The fairy accordingly shakes Emery's hand off and resumes sprinting back into the village. Leaving Emery to helplessly watch as Zelgadis struggles.
Out of sheer desperation, Emery stoops to grab one of the buckets discarded by the edge of the pond and then throws it as hard as he can at the spring's guardian.]
Let go of him!
[It's honestly probably a pathetic attempt, but maybe if he can at least distract this asshole...]
