The shot had the other advantage of lighting the area, giving her a glimpse of just how many monsters there were assaulting the camp. Where had they even come from?

She dived out of the way on a monster claw, it's dark but she hopes her eyes adjust quickly. She contemplates her flashlight but it won't light up much and is more likely to destroy her night vision than actually be helpful.

So she will have to fight by sound. She stabs out at the creature. Without seeing it she can't fell where is best to stab it and has to hope she hurts it enough.

Apparently she doesn't, because it keeps coming, claws swiping at her.
