[Karis scrambles off the dragon's back, relieved that she's on solid ground now.] Whew, glad that's over now.

[She also turns, seeing that the cultists are coming in fast. She takes the time to pull out another marble, already knowing which spell she wants to use next, so it'll turn to shards almost as soon as it gets pulled out.

She waves a hand above her head, the energy of the spell forming enormous hailstones out from the air. With just a flick of the wrist, they're sent flying off toward the cultists.]

[Water and ice! Elements she can get behind! And she can help with those as the hail batters the cultists Xzana uses her powers over the water to make sure the strikes are even more brutal and precise. Throwing the full weight of her magic into it to be sure these hailstones not only batter the body, but rip through it as well.

Hailstones. So much cooler than lame lightening!]

[spellfeather]

[By the archmages, Karis didn't think that her hailstones could ever pack such a punch! She takes a note to herself to train in her magic again to get this effect going without help.

Unfortunately, Karis won't be able to keep up with her magic, as it's starting to strain her mind...one that's going to end with a wicked migraine later. She's already sweating while a headache begins to form. She'll swap back to her pistol, hoping that it will last her long enough.]

[Luckily if they ever have time to breath, Karis will have a new, large and scaly friend who will be willing to watch her back for her. Once more the large dragon pushes herself off the ground to snap at the few remaining cultists in the sky. Although not flying up too high. Just a few feet as the lightening still has her too spooked to go much higher.

The few feet are high enough to pick off what remained of the third party in the sky. Those that were left flying off for possible reinforcements. Now it was just the ones on the ground that needed to be dealt with. Xzana will start by landing her full weight onto the closest one to Karis.

[spellfeather]

[With Xzana taking care of those that dared to get close enough, Karis would pick off the ones that were out of the dragons reach, and she made sure that each bullet counted, as Karis did not want to waste a single one, not with how limited her supply is.]

[Eventually the fighting will slow as the numbers of fighters drop. Leaving at least Xzana panting and attempting to catch her breath. What she would like to do is hunker down and rest a bit, but not here. Not in this place filled with death.]
