[@RiverMaiden] Livia kept looking at the prince awaiting a response, then she heard a maniacal laugh and a bright light entered the periphery of her vision. The wraith dispersed as the missile closed the distance. It slammed into the ground scorching the place where it hit, the space in which Livia had been hovering but moments earlier. She reconstituted herself a short distance away, her focus slipping for the slightest of moments causing all three of her skeletal warriors to fall to one knee in unison. She snarled her chorus of whispering voices making an unnatural shifting sound like a dread tempest.

The harsh words from their mistress caused the warriors to snap up again, but they remained unmoving, weapons ready awaiting their mistresses' orders. But Livia wasn't going to give them any, she looked up and saw the source of the attack. The fairy from before, Livia smiled behind her hood. This one was brave, stupid, but brave none the less.

Livia's wraith blade re-materialised in her right hand, the elegant and ethereal blade cut a path through the plants that covered the forest ground as Livia glided to get a better angle on her opponent. As she did so the plants touched by the blade wilted, shrivelled and then turned to ash.

Livia extended her free hand as she dodged around the clearing. She had little magic left to call upon sustaining the three minions at once was taxing, but she still had enough for a couple of tricks. Aiming her free hand at the fairy a long black tendril shot forth from her skeletal fingers aimed at the fairy's wings. As she did so she called out to her attacker [color=8493ca]'Come and face me mortal! I've been denied one soul today yours would be a welcome exchange!'[/color]
