As soon as she is free, Daxia dashes back down the alley to the fight, Gregeddin and Darga right behind her. When she reaches the corner, she spots the cavalier at once. She pulls out a small vial of black liquid and a stone of flint. She opens the vial and lets a single drop fall on the flint, then begins to chant. "
Suh kali Jalaran!" she intones. The flint suddenly transforms into a fist-sized ball of flame that hovers in her hand. "When you get to the Abyss, tell them to make room for my uncle!" With that, she hurls it at the cavalier. While in flight, the orb transforms into an arrow and flies forward. It strikes the cavalier with full force and he screams in pain. When the smoke clears, he still stands, but is clearly badly hurt.
Tulbas summons a small rock inside the cavalier's helmet, which partially blinds him for a moment. He realizes he is running out of cantrips fast, but it appears the tides are turning.
Kendra keeps trying to withdraw, but there is nobody to cover her. The cavalier and archer just follow her wherever she goes. She realizes that withdrawing just isn't possible without any help. The archer and cavalier continue to attack her, but she's able to ward off their blows.
Haahqae loads up his sling and fires, striking the archer in the shoulder. He cries out in pain, but doesn't fall. "Next time for sure!" the gnome insists, loading up another bullet.
Kynaston stands dumbfounded, gawking at Daxia. It seems she was not quite as helpless as he first believed. Realizing this is a change in fortune, he turns back to the battle. "Now's our chance! Haahqae, Tulbas, take out the guy with the axe! Kendra, finish off the cavalier! Gregeddin, back her up! Darga, protect Daxia!" He readies his axe and prepares to charge. "Keep his focus, Kendra!"
