It could definitely see him! Also it had good aim. He sensed the projectiles only just in time to duck his head out of the way, but he still got smacked and bowled over. Smarting, he wiggled around to go hid behind a mostly broken pillar.
Feeling slightly safer he hissed again, but didn’t dare peek out again unless it had another rock to throw. It had screamed though, so at least he had come across as a threat. That had sounded a bit familiar. What this just a human woman? That didn’t explain the funny rat smell, but it made as much sense as anything. Those things always turned up in the strangest places. Squishy but unpredictable. He’d seen nastier things than basilisks fall prey to that.
“Sssstop that,” he told her, and then passed to chose words that were easier to say without sounding like a punctured tire. “Or I will eat you.”
