The creature stood almost five meters tall and was easily over half that wide. It was vaguely man-shaped, formed of the earth and gravel of the parking lot. There was no neck, but it gave the appearance of having a head that squared off and ran directly into the trunk of its body. Two powerful arms as broad across as a normal human’s chest shoved against the front of the Landrover, halting it even though the vehicle’s four wheels churned the ground. The legs looked like bridge-support pillars, braced to take on the weight, momentum, and drive of the vehicle it blocked.
