S-S-S-S-S-S-SHING! The front wave of the enemy line was flattened, knocked down as if by Upuaut's own scythe. S-S-S-S-S-S-SHING! I stole another glance back, and there was Sana Avennia, staggering forward, shaking her flail at the enemy line.

His hair was matted with blood and ice chips. I glanced up at Master Elaina, safe and sound behind a glittering ring of ice. She gave me a sprightly wave, a second glowing sphere of ice in her hand, and looked around for more targets.
