Recalling something he'd seen once, Ignis fought to get to the thing's neck if it had one that is. Out of the corner of his eye he saw Piccolo running to do..something, but one of the damn tentacles unseated him and he shoved his lance in the creature as he slid down its body.

Halfway down Ignis held onto his lance and dismissed the weapon. That made him free fall but his daggers were summoned before he dropped further. Moving onto another damn tentacle, Ignis quickly infused them with fire and had to leap again before implanting them into flesh.

That's when he climbed up the thing that way, all the while dodging flailing limbs.
