| "HELP!" screamed Udaran, caught momentarily in the Mage's Flame spell.
"Got you!" Muz-Ra yelled triumphantly, having winged the Mage in one arm and dropping his spell. | 
|
| "Thank's Red!" Udaran called, the flames giving her a brief respite from the bandit before he closed again. | 
|
| "GODDAMN IT! I caught another arrow Udaran," Muz-Ra shouted, "I'm turning into a pincushion. We've got to get rid of that archer!"
Udaran staggered up off the ground after her assailant's last blow. "I'd be happy to oblige," panted the Khajiit, "but my friend here won't let me leave!" | 
|
| "Udaran, I can't help," Muz-Ra gasped in pain, "The last arrow took out my bow arm. I think I'm in trouble."
"Sorry for getting you into this Red!" called Udaran, falling back and barely able to keep her feet under her. | 
|
| Unexpectedly, a scream and a sickening SCRUNCH was heard from the wall behind them.
"What the hell? The archer fell from the wall Udaran!" Muz-Ra cheered weakly.
"Kitty!" Udaran yelled. Muz-Ra suddenly noticed the unhooded Khajiit standing on the wall where the archer had recently been, heaving as if exhausted herself. But before she could hail her friend, Muz-Ra was enveloped in agonizing flame. | 
|
| "THEY'RE RUNNING AWAY!" Udaran screamed elatedly as she began to chase her former attacker.
"Wait! STOP Udie! Don't chase them! Red is on FIRE!" Ubergard shouted, wheeling to attack the mage. | 
|
| "This is the price you pay for the impunity to attack ME, Argonian!" spat the mage, ignoring the impending doom of Ubergard.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Muz-Ra screamed in agony, oblivious to the taunting of the mage.
"RED!" cried Kitty, blinded. | 
|
| "You, at least, will not escape this fate!" cried the mage as Muz-Ra's skin began to char.
Suddenly a bright flash temporarily blinded the mage from Muz-Ra's direction"
"What the hell? Where did you go?!" the mage screamed, his flames no longer striking anything. | 
|
| "You shall never know the answer to that, mage," said Ubergard calmly, arriving behind the mage, who had one momentary glimpse of the giantess.
With an inhuman roar that betrayed the rage within, Ubergard weilded one powerful stroke of Virgindrung that split the mage from head to groin until the blade buried itself deep in the earth underneath the bloody, bifurcated meat that remained. The flame ceased. |
