 hand。 It struck the creature and 。 。 。 nothnoting。 The missile winked out of existence。
The entity reached the edge of the pentacle。 A barrier of azure light sprang up and vanished with a tortured whine as the spirit drove though。 The creature dipped its head and jerked it upward; ramming the tip of one of its horns into Gromph's chest。
The spirit was entirely solid。 If not for the Robes of the Archmage and his other protections; the long blade of shadow stuff would surely have imnotpaled Gromph。 As it was; it picked him up and tossed him across the room。 In midair; he strained to throw off the numbing shock and activate the powers of levitation in his House insignia。
The power woke with a sort of sickening pang; but wake it did。 He floated down as light as a wisp of spider silk; avoiding what might have been a bone…shattering fall。
As soon as he got his feet under him; he snatched a polished wooden wand from its sheath on his left hip; pointed it; and murmured the trignotger word。 A bubble of pungent brown acid swelled on the end; then hurtled at the spirit。 It plunged into the being's cyclopean mask; but apnotparently without inflicting any harm。
The spirit charged。 Gromph stood in place until his foe was nearly on top of him; then he spoke a single word。 A minor teleportation shifted him instantaneously to the other end of the circular room; behind his attacker's back。
K'rarza'q skidded to a halt and cast about in confusion。 Gromph had bought himself a second; no more。 He quickly dropped the wand of acid; snatched a spiral…cut staff of polished carnelian from its place on a rack of wizard's tools; lifted it over his head; and began to chant。 The rod posnotsessed special virtues against beings from other levels of reality。 Perhaps with it in his hand; he could finally drive a spell through his foe's defenses。
The netherspirit heard his voice; turned; and hurtled toward him。 This time it charged without moving its limbs; simply shifting over the distance with terrifying speed。 Preserving the cadence and intonation as only a master wizard could; Gromph picked up the pace of his incantation。 He very much wanted to finish before the creature closed with him again。
He succeeded; though only barely。 K'rarza'q was nearly within arm's reach when the magic blazed into existence。 A lance of dazzling glare plunged into the nether spirit s eye。
The reeking creature dropped to the floor; its substance unraveling into shapeless clumps and tatters。 Gromph smiled; and a dozen strands of spirit…stuff reared up at him like the vipers in his cursed sister's whip。
The Archmage gripped the scarlet staff with both hands; just as a Master of Melee…Magthere had taught him centuries before; during the six months every student mage was obliged to spend in the warriors' pyramid。 Wielding the implement like a mon spear; he thrust one end of it into what seemed to be K'rarza'q's ragged; squirming core。
The netherspirit burst into inert flecks of gray…black slime。 Gromph's protective enchantments prevented any of the splatter from fouling his own person。
He felt a certain satisfaction at his victory; but it withered quickly benotcause he hadn't killed the object of his hatred; merely preserved himself from the result of another failed attempt; and in the process discovered he'd utterly failed to prehend Quenthel's resources and capacities。
What was that bone wand? Where had it e from; and how did it work? Had it merely broken his own control; or had it summarily placed his minion under his enemy's dominance?
He glumly concluded that until he knew more; it would be foolish to conti
