LOREN
Alright, well, they were evenly matched so far. However, the summoner wasn’t going to give up so easily. Deimos might be more experienced, but Loren had about twenty-two years of pent up aggression and magic, and he was incredibly eager to prove himself in this new world. While he’d showed off parts of what he could do, this was the first time he was cutting loose with the whole breadth of his power.
And he had a whole new magic to play with: the water leapt and danced easily at his call. Indeed, the Launceleyn found himself grinning wildly as he saw the General retreating once more. Again, the summoner let him, but this time he wouldn’t allow the other man to land so easily or get close. Instead, he called back the wave, bringing it coursing back to him, instinctively cooling the steam, causing it to fall down as water. He took a moment to dismiss the harpy eagle, since it had been effectively neutralized and he'd need his whole focus for what came next. He brought the whole mass of liquid up over him in a dome; it wasn’t the full range he could reach, he knew that, but he made it thick, choosing the small area over a more potent defense.
Then he sent the dome spinning, fast enough to deflect any projectile or animal that Deimos might choose to send Loren’s way. However, he wasn’t done yet; as the general banked for another attack, the Launceleyn felt icicles growing in his hands. Icicles that he sent coursing towards the General. They pierced the dome easily and he kept up a steady stream of them, trying to at least deter Deimos from approaching.
