[h3][color=slateblue]Ariel[/color][/h3] Laying out on the cart she'd crashed into the woman's head was swimming. Her eyes opened slightly and she could hear people talking but it was all blurry and muffled. Her body ached from both the impact and the stress the shock put on her muscles. Things were starting to come back to her. She had foolishly attempted to fight a much more powerful mage and got her butt handed to her. It had actually been the first attack that had every been directed at her and to be honest she thought it would kill her. Leaning her head up she saw Jamie defending her. Where this person came from she had no idea but it was much appreciated. So far it seemed that all she could do was get in the way. Resigning not to move a sudden jolt of electricity shot through her body again and she sat up. Still hurt like hell and nothing really changed about the situation. Awake after that she was more confused by where the shock came from if she wasn't getting attacked. An after effect perhaps. Wanting to get to her feet she decided against it since her legs felt numb at the moment. More mages were showing up from the other location and it looked like the woman using lightning magic would have her work cut out for her, good. taking another blast was not high on Ariel's list of things to do.
