Watching as the group quickly shifts to go on the offensive, Aethon looks for a tempting target to present itself.  Although the shock value of Linda's undead allies is rather quickly dealt with, they provide more than enough of a distraction for the rest of the group to take advantage of.  However, when the axe-wielding opponent manages to pull Alizome's pack off, his priorities shift significantly as that holds the scepter that they had recovered.<br/><br/>Brandishing his holy symbol, and quickly chanting the words of the chosen spell, Aethon can feel the bands of force snapping into place around his target.  Whether or not it would hold remained to be seen, but at the least it would slow her down.<br/><br/>[ Aethon is casting Hold Person at the one who took the scepter (Axewielder, I think), DC 15 Will save to resist being paralyzed for 5 rounds. ]
