Baern just swings his one waraxe two handed, hoping to take out the big guy before they all fall.
Nyar stands up, his wand flashing out as he moves. The spectral hand that grabs the shaft of the war ax is almost invisible.
With a practiced spiral, the ax somersaults through the air and lands within hands reach of Baern.
"Feeling big now Gurg? You like picking on little girls? You're pathetic."
Leveling his wand, a bolt of silver energy strikes Gurg right in the head.
The quori spirit inside Veruza, in her moment of need, takes over. The sand begins to swirl around Veruza's feet, her eyes take on an ultra bright radiance, glowing bright red orbs of divine menace. The kalshtar clerics robes whip about as if battered by invisible winds, as she rises off the ground and spreads her arms wide.
Tilting her head back in a most unnatural fashion, Veruza began speaking in an unholy tone.
Enemies of the turning age, once this body is gone, immortal nightmares unto you! My blood is the divine chalice of a being far beyond mortal minds, woe unto my enemies for we are unbreakable, we are undeniable, we are immortal!
The lizardman begins to doubt his chances of winning an eternal battle, visions fill his mind, endless rows of dead bodies, lizard children, lizard women, himself and his friends, visions of walking away from the arena just in time to be slain from an unseen source.
Gurg's mind is conflicted, the visions not much more of a nightmare than his everyday life. Still, the weight of the clerics divine willpower stayed Gurgs mighty hands.
Veruza floats lightly down to the ground again, near Nyar and the Lizardman
We shall be at peace, and the age shall turn.
Narvala fires a bolt of radiant energy at Gurg, hoping to move him out of the way before she can move to aid Cairn. If she succeeds, she moves to his side.
The Lizardman looks at Veruza, shakes his head as if warring over his decision, looks at her again, and then moves to open the door and flee.
"Coom bak here youse stoopid fishman and kill the Jarasca." Gurg shouts. Gurg then moves in and swings at Veruza twice. Missing once, but catching the side of her head slightly as well.
Gurg then stops moving for a second and his voice changes
"This is pointless. You have defeated my gladiators this time, but the next time will not be so easy. Come after me at your own peril heroes of Sharn, especially you Spawn of Quori."
Gurg blinks and stutters
"Huh? What? Why Gurg fighting?"
