"If you stay close to me, we shall both be safe from most, if not all, of her spells. I would not particularly count it among your worries unless you will stray far from me during battle. As for this location, how many of the other predators would come to her aid? If we are able to deal with her quickly and efficiently enough, they may think twice."<br/><br/>{OOC: Auralia has a permanent minor globe of invulnerability and circle of protect evil (with +4 instead of +2 bonuses) around herself in a 20ft radius,  so unless Leska has 4th level spells, they won't get through if Alyssa is close enough nearby. Whenever we get into actual combat, I'll post the specifics again so that anybody nearby Auralia remembers to apply them.}<br/><br/>Auralia looks deep in thought for a moment before continuing. "Also, before we begin, there is one thing that I must request. Part of my being sent down to help Sen is so that I may build up my strength to ascend to a higher rank of Celestial. To do this, I am to dispose of the pact breakers as they would do to the weaker creatures. Should we fell Leska in battle, I would ask that you would grant me the honor of granting her a final resting place."
