Finally able to face the witch that the two young men had been chasing for days, the task at hand is not as assured as was suspected. Though the woman looks to be physically inferior, she proves to be rather quick of mind and assaults the two before they are able to formulate their own attack. Though adopting a posture of a pugilist, she, instead, flings a stone hidden within her palm and strikes Whisper. A yellowish cloud erupts from the stone as it strikes. Whisper’s thought process becomes slightly fuzzy.

Despite his condition, Whisper is still able to hit the witch with his own stone, though it does no physical damage, and Jaguar shoots her with a dart. The witch is able to resist both attempts at a mystical assault. The two young men will need to think about their resources if they are to prevail.

Realizing that he is still carrying a lodestone, Whisper decides that he should make use of it to bolster his assault. Continually moving, hoping to make him self a harder target while remaining relatively close to his enemy, Whisper slings the lodestone; but instead of causing it to emit a flash, he causes it to store an electrical charge.

The battle looks something more like an odd game than a matter of life and death. All three people are continually moving because their primary means of attack is the use of a projectile. The witch continues to prove to be quicker than either young man. This time, she flicks her stone at Jaguar, which again emits a yellowish cloud when it strikes. Being of the same talent as the witch, Jaguar Mahoao is barely affected. In his response, however, he misses the woman with his dart. Because he and the witch are of the same discipline, and she has the greater talent, it occurs to Jaguar that he may want to change tactics and use one of his special darts.

Since she is focused on Jaguar, this time, it gives Whisper a slight advantage, and he hits her with the slung lodestone, which explodes in a shower of sparks, giving a marginal jolt to the woman. Less than 10 seconds of time has passed, but it feels like so much longer. Little damage has been traded, and the conflict continues.
