You move in quietly, not even a pebble was turned as you lightly stepped closer towards the harpies. Ducking behind a rock you concentrate the ki into your hands just like you were taught last night. It felt oddly familiar despite doing this the first time, physically, but soon you would truly have a ball of light in your hands, ready to fire. You launch the orb towards the nearest harpy; it was a bit messy due to your unfamiliarity and the range, but your sun bolt right into the chest of the harpy, causing it to yelp in surprise. That help signaled the rest of your team to attack, focusing on the harpy you attacked. Shortfang's crossbow bolt sped through the air and shot the harpy right into the chest, causing it to scream in pain. Pylia summoned forth a divine bolt as she too sneaked closer to get the harpy in range of her spell, scaring the harpy from her roost but failing to actually harm her. That's when Buddy's harpoon came out of nowhere and nailed the bird right in the wing, tearing off flesh and feathers as the harpoon stuck into the tree with a solid thud.

The harpies screeched as the battle commenced, but your allies were ready! Shortfang whistled loudly now that stealth was broken, commanding Syfr to fly towards the wounded harpy. The bird saw the black owl and was ready to slash at it, however Syfr was merely a distraction. At the last second the bird turned away just as it was within range of the harpy, and replacing him was one of Shortfang's arrows! It nailed the harpy right in the eye, causing it to fall from the tree as she struggled to gain her bearings. Pylia walked up beside you with a slight look of surprise. "Since when were you able to use magic!?" She just chuckled as she summoned a small ball of fire at the tip of her war club, using it to direct her fire orb right into the wounded Harpy to finish it off. The bird burst into flames and fell to the ground in a sputtering, burning heap.

But now it was the Harpies turn to attack! They were furious at their sister's death, and the one that was close to her charged straight towards the closest target, being you. She flew fast and furiously as her talons cut into your arms when you tried to defend yourself. Her follow up rake would've sliced your eyes had you not stumbled in such a way that the claws were literal centimeters away from your face. You could feel the force behind the claws that could've potentially blinded you. The other two harpies rushed into battle, not quite close enough to immediately start attacking but they certainly wasted no time closing the distance.
