Combat round 3
A moment after the club-wielding dragonkin smashes Zathros heavily, Flitterdust darts forward to his aid. Calling the blessings of Bahamut down upon her ally, she releases a flow of healing energy into his bruised body, undoing much of the work of the greatclub.
Meanwhile, Drumaxius attempts to put the arcanist in an inescapable hold. His first attempt is ill-fated, however, as his talons slip from the ugly creature's scaly hide. Learning from his mistake, he digs in and wraps the dragonkin up tightly. Then he goes to work, methodically ripping the life from the dragonkin as they fall. He casts an eye downward, attempting to judge the right moment to let go. However, Versveshedar thrusts his head in for a bite at the pinned caster, which abruptly solves Drumaxius' dilemma- the arcanist falls limp in his claws, his blood streaming up past Drumaxius as they fall.
Thric Martivar, feeling an urge to get away from the greatclub wielder, flies away. On his way, he calls upon his magic ring once more, winking out of sight.
Luminous settles in next to the burly dragonkin, backwinging into a hover. She reaches out with her long neck and, prepared this time for the foul taste of its blood, sinks her teeth deeply into its thigh.
Zathros sees the archer trying to escape and flings himself impulsively after it. As he goes, the club smashes into his wingtip, causing him much pain. As he is going straight down, though, he has a few seconds to clear his mind before leveling out and readying himself to meet the fleeing foe.
Shayuri removes a small stick from a hidden spot, then manipulates it carefully. Her care is rewarded as five shimmering bolts of pure force spring forth and smash, one after the other, into the lone flying dragonkin's chest. This is the final straw- he loses consciousness and begins falling earthward, gaining speed as he goes.
Versveshedar, seeing that the other enemies have been dispatched, flies a wide, looping course directly underneath where he estimates the falling archer must pass in a few seconds, then prepares to give it a sound thrashing.
