Kaleeth thought death was upon her when the wamasu unleashed its storm of lightning, but much to her surprise, and relief, Janius' ward saved both of their lives. Still, she wanted to scream out in terror once more, but looking at Janius beside her, she realized how useless she was. He had stayed calm and reacted quickly to save their lives, but what was she doing? Screaming, crying? Janius was being brave while she was being a coward. She knew she was better than that; she was a hunter, she [i]had[/i] to be better than that. She did not have magic like Janius, and probably not as much experience, but she had to do something, anything to stop the monster. Even if she got herself killed in the process, it would be better than doing nothing and letting both of them get eaten by the creature. 

While Janius was still blocking the lightning storm, Kaleeth grabbed her spear, which was slung over her shoulder with a leather strap attached to two points on the haft, and held onto it tightly. She wasn't strong enough, nor was her spear durable enough, to break through the wamasu's armored scales, but...there was one idea she had that might at least hurt it. It was probably a stupid idea and would likely get her killed, but at least if she did it, she would have done something to try and kill the beast before the end. As soon as the wamasu's storm let up, and Janius launched his fireball, Kaleeth decided to make her move. She was more afraid than she had ever been and her hands were shaking profusely, but pure adrenaline and dedication kept her going. She bolted out from their hiding spot and scrambled to her feet as quickly as possible as she thrust her spear forward. All of the spell light had temporarily blinded her, and probably the wamasu as well, in the dark cave, but she had a rough idea of where the beast's mouth was. As the fire was clearing, Kaleeth's spear rushed forward and embedded itself into the roof of the wamasu's gaping maw. The wamasu immediately began to thrash its head around, causing Kaleeth to lose her grim instantly, but the spear was still stabbed into its mouth. On reflex, the wamasu bit down to try and destroy the foreign object, but only made its situation worse in the process. While it did manage to bite the spear's haft in half, it ended up forcing the rest of the spear deeper into its head and pressing the spearhead up against the bottom of its skull. 

The wamasu was now hurt, but it was certainly not dead, and since she had dropped her bow before hiding, Kaleeth was now standing directly in front of the enraged beast with only her bone dagger to protect herself. Still, she had hurt the wamasu more than she could have expected. Unfortunately, the spear didn't look like it was going to be enough to kill it. It was bleeding pretty badly, and the spearhead was close to hitting a lethal spot, but it wasn't going to die in its current state. Still...the beast was hurt, and definitely distracted. It couldn't even close its mouth properly. Surely there was [i]something[/i] more they could do to it?

"In the Trial of Body, you must show that your body, like your soul and mind, is strong enough for the ritual. This is going to be a trial of combat, hence why it is the most dangerous trial. Now, it is certainly not a fight to the death. The fight will be monitored closely, only practice weapons will be allowed, and we will have healers watching, just in case of accidents. While you were gone, I asked Meesei about your combat training and abilities, so we will be sure to select an appropriate opponent for your trial. For the most challenging aspect of this trial, you will need to demonstrate that you are capable even when you are not physically at your best. To that end, before the trial, you will need to drink a specific poison. I can assure you, it is not a deadly poison, and it has no capability of killing Argonians or non-Argonians. Nor will it cause any lasting harm. It will, however, weaken you for the fight. It will blur your vision, slightly weaken your muscles, and make you fatigue more quickly. You must overcome these challenges and defeat your opponent in order to complete your final trial." Thorantilth explained.
