[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 5989237, member: 4936"] Khepri was taken aback by the attack; both by the bizarre horribleness of the creatures making the assault, as well as her shock that the town was so poorly defended! Were there no guards? She'd assumed, from the lack of a wall, that the area was patrolled and protected. Such an important area as this could not be allowed to fall to chaos and disarray. Closing her eyes for a moment, Khepri saw in her mind a doorway wrought of wood. Over it, carved in the granite, was the number 1. The 'first gate,' that she had created to control the power within. She opened that gate, and inside was a fierce light that crashed over her, filling her...and spilling from her fingertips. Once the power was unleashed, it could only be shaped, no longer stopped. With the focus of the monastic schooling, Khepri kept her concentration, made her will into a shape that the power had to pour through to escape. The shape of an arrow. From the outside, Khepri's hands glowed brightly as she murmured a resonant mantra, then the light dwindled, and expired as a bright star shot from her hands. It weaved between panicking, fleeing villagers like a tiny sparrow might have, finding its way to one of the goblins with all the inexorability of a sunrise. (Magic Missile! Targeting either a wounded, but still alive goblin, or just the nearest one.) [/QUOTE]
