<strong>Ivette</strong><br/><br/>The rays sizzled in a burning line towards Idao, but both hit some unseen shield as a bright red light radiated forth from the Grand Lord in response. Both shots were absorbed into this glowing light.<br/><br/>Despite all the mental struggling within Ivette's mind, Idao's lithe bodyguard was unprepared for her to attack them<em>both</em>. She cringed under the effects of the ray, yet still pushed through to draw her katana as she strode forward and slash at the sorceress in one fluid movement. Still, the warrior's attack was much slower thanks to Ivette's efforts and she easily backed out of the way.<br/><br/>The now posessed Grand Lord took another step back, 'Help!' She heard him command in her mind. But he wasn't talking to her, rather it was directed at all the other guards in the castle...<br/><br/>He turned his attention back on Ivette, sending a rippling wave through the air towards her. When it hit her, she felt all his power trying to overload her senses.<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Ivette: 19<br/>Captain: 17<br/>Idao: 15<br/><br/>Captain's Attack: ... 4.

Still, she piled up all the scrolls on the wizard's desk for the archivist to sort through.<br/><br/>The piratess waited patiently, allowing him to work his quite literal magic. She was content not to bother him when the quest was on its' way. The study was indeed the domain of a great wizard, but the only scrolls that he found that he could have had any chance of using were a few shared by arcane and divine spellcasters. The rest of the scrolls and the contents of his spellbook would no doubt have kept a pure arcane spellcaster busy for a very long time. Dirae looked over at the ones Dexter couldn't use, "I can take these, right?" She asked, picking one up and blowing the dust off, "I know a guy who knows a guy, says these scrolls sell like a two copper whore on festival night."<br/><br/>"...Find anything useful?"<br/><br/><hr/><br/>Ethereal Jaunt [x2], Control Water [x3], Wall of Stone, Dismissal, Break Enchantment, Stone Shape [x2], Scrying [x3], Stoneskin, Water Breathing [x5], Dispel Magic [x3], Summon Monster II, Protection from Evil.
