The noise of the cicadas' speech was so loud that the weak undead disintegrated into dust.

The tourists from Kosha furiously started stamping on the cicadas, because the ground tremors were making their snap-sketches come out blurry.

The tourists followed them down, hoping to get more snap-sketches. The cicadas followed the tourists, hoping to kill them all.
