The magician straightens her arms at her sides as flames surround her body, ready to unleash her newly learned attack. Arra Neea knows of this attack and steadies herself waiting for the right time to roll out from under it. Just as the pillars of fire are dropping at her, she jumps into a forward roll towards the magician’s right hand side. Not paying attention to the thunderous booms to her side Arra Neea comes out of her roll to the right of the magician and brings her whip in upon the woman’s wand in the same motion. Feeling her grip on her wand fade the magician turns to Arra Neea as her whip arm makes a full circle around her body and comes back in on the magicians face, bringing the wand in with it.

The magician cries out in pain as for a second time her nose is crushed, blood splatter in the aftermath. Falling to the ground on her back, the magician knows her end draws near, as the Segnale makes strides toward her. Trying to scramble to her feet the magician sees the healer make motions with her hands, and suddenly she is unable to move, paralyzed from the spell. Above her now the Segnale looks into the magicians eyes.

“Avenge your sister by taking my stone? Do you even know what this stone harbors magician and why you are tasked to take it?” Arra Neea says as she places her nails upon the magician’s neck.

Coming out of paralysis the magician purses her lips in reply just as a winged creature rams into the healers body. Stunned on impact, Arra Neea drives her nails into the beast and drags it with her as she tumbles. Coming to a stop the beast is on top of her, talons dug into her body just below her armor-less breasts. Bringing its right wing down on her, Arra Neea turns her head to the side and takes the blow just above her ear and she almost fades into sleep. Bringing the wing down on her again, Arra Neea knows this time she won’t hold her consciousness and quickly brings up her left hand in defense.

After the healer rolls away with the beast, the magician gets to her feet, knowing what lies in the wake of the winged creature. Looking to her right she sees the summoner moving toward her in a slow walk and she moves for her wand. Watching as the magician takes up her weapon the summoner says, “Did you think you left me for dead after I took the life of that stupid ice bitch? You would think that your pitiful pillars of fire could bring my life to an end? You will not be the first to die, who would underestimate me.” The summoner charges in.

Weakened from pain the magician can only bring forth a few bolts of fire that the summoner shrugs off as he pummels her to the ground and brings his blades in on her neck. Raising her arms in defense the magician grabs the wrists of the summoner and holds the blades only inches above her.

Powerful winged blow coming in on her head, Arra Neea gets her hand up just in time. Her nails meet the bony top of the beast’s wing in the middle of its strike, its own power being its demise, as the razor like nails sever the wing in half. Screeching in pain the beast falls to her side as Arra Neea rolls on top of it and drives her nails into its heart. Twisting her hand as the creature writhes in pain she calls out a spell to heal herself as she drains the life from beast.

Turning, Arra Neea sees the summoner on top the magician, forcing his blades down on her neck. Slowly the magician is loosing this test of strength. Moving to them, she calls on a spell and paralyzes them both. Picking up her whip on the way to them, she kneels down next to them. Moving her head in between the two she looks into the magician’s eyes. “The ice bitch he was referring to was your sister no?” Arra Neea draws the strands of her whip with one hand and stretches them out between the two. Taking her right hand, she draws the strands over the top of the summoners head down and around to her initial position and pulls her arms apart to make the strands taught around his neck. “I know the pain you feel, your heart is now black, and you fight with anger that will only endanger you. Killing this summoner will not reverse the effects on your heart.” As the final word comes out of her mouth, Arra Neea stretches her hands apart and the summoners head separates from his body, ricocheting off the magician’s forehead and rolls away. Blood spurting everywhere, Arra Neea stands and kicks the body of the summoner off the magician and takes his place on top of her as she says, “See, your still in pain, are you not?”

Placing her knees above the magician’s armpits as she comes out of paralysis, Arra Neea says, “I ask you again, do you even know the power of the stone you seek?”

Spitting out blood, the summoners and her own, the magician says, I care little of your precious stone Segnale, kill me and get it over with.”

Throwing her hands down to the sides of the magicians head and moving her own head closer to look into the magicians eyes Arra Neea says, “Revenge will do nothing for you, but if you will help me, I can bring your sister back.”

Shocked at the words coming from the Segnale, the magician says, “Do not toy with me Segnale, if the words you speak are true then tell me how this is possible.”

Removing her legs from the magician, Arra Neea stands and pulls the magician to her feet. Moving in close to the magicians face, Arra Neea says, “It is possible through my stone, and if you agree to help me, I can bring your sister back.”

“What is the stone Segnale?”

“I shall tell you, but first, I am Arra Neea. What is your name magician?”

“They call me Cendi.”

“Let us rest inside my cave, I will answer all your questions, and you shall answer mine.”
