I loosed the arrow, and Arthur proved to be one hell of a shot. It thunked into the bear's head, accomplishing exactly one thing. It upset the bear a lot. The bear charged down the hill at me, an arrow sticking from its face, and my horse bolted away before I could join it. I activated Dead Eye, bow still equipped, and so in slow motion I got to witness this massive creature barrel towards me. The second arrow didn't piss it off more, but only because I think it couldn't have been angrier.
It mauled me to death. I actually kicked it off at one point, but I made it about half a metre before it finished what it started. It was amazing.
