Serphia looked like she was on the brink of exploding in Liaena’s presence. Fuming with rage, she suddenly launched her arm forth like a cannonball, grabbing Liaena by her collar and lifting her up from the ground.

“I have had it with your insolence [b]you little shaine o’ferarn! Dain![/b]” Serphia sneered as she shook Liaena back and forth around in the air.

But the Captain’s attention was suddenly diverted from the helpless human and onto the High Elf as Sharon ignited the unholy ritualistic circles spread out across the room. 
This sudden act of magic seemed to shock the Captain as her jaw dropped for a moment.

“What are you doing, Quel’Dorei!?” 

Serphia suddenly let go of Liaena, allowing the human to fall down to the ground like a sack of potatoes. Her chainmail may have been a boon against an attack, but it did not help very much against the forces of gravity. Rather, it was perhaps the opposite, as she crashed into the floor.

Walking over to Sharon, Serphia threw him an angry look.

“What is this supposed to mean!” The Captain demanded to know. It was one thing to tolerate magi. It was a completely different thing to tolerate magi who cast dangerous spells around her without as much as giving her a warning!
“This place is cursed! Leave it!”

Rithrynn immediately spun around, but froze in her track when she suddenly recognized Sherpa.

“Sherr?!” She gasped. Accidentally letting go of her arrow, it immediately flew straight past Sherpa’s head, the wind from the arrow gently pulling some of his hair back as it passed no more than a few inches away from him.

[i]“Daaarnnnn it… “[/i]

“Uhm… sorry, I shot yo-, no, I mean, sorry. I did not intend to do that!” Rithrynn was quick to explain as Sherpa stared in the space next to his head where the arrow had just passed. Had he merely been standing a few inches to the left, it might very well have traveled through his skull!

Placing her bow around her torso, Rithrynn took two steps forward towards the High Elf, before pausing.

“Sherpa… what are you doing here?” Rithrynn asked with a bewildered look on her face.
“Are you… are you in league with the assassins?!”
