There was simply nothing left. Raigar grinned at him. "If I could see your life bar, I'd bet it just has a tiny little sliver left, huh? You did pretty good, but in the end you're just an En Pee Sea. This world is mine, not yours."

He then began to fumble for another artifact in his robes and Bloodwraith knew that would be the end of it. The worst part of it all was that this was his fault. It had been his own arrogance that made him try to capture his opponent instead of destroying him when he had the chance.

Raigar might be a single-minded fool, but that was also his strength. Bloodwraith had split his energy between multiple goals, trying to have everything. In the end, it wasn't his opponent's strength that had defeated him, but his own mental weakness. As he hung there from his opponent's hand, Bloodwraith mentally begged Meara and Danniah for forgiveness.

A bolt of lightning sheared through the air between them.

Suddenly Bloodwraith was collapsing into the sand, too drained even to catch himself. But he could still move his eyes, so he sought out the source of the bolt. It had come from higher in the stands, near the three raised chambers.

Within the left-most, he saw Gharavi, but she had transformed. Instead of barbarian rags, she wore black leather armor. As he watched, she lifted her axe from her back, and it shifted as it moved. The blades came together as she raised it oddly, propping the base of the handle against her shoulder and aiming the head of the axe forward.

As she sighted along it, Bloodwraith realized the truth. Not an axe, a staff.

Another bolt of lightning crackled out, this one even more intense. It would have torn through most fighters, but in his current body Raigar managed to endure it. "What the fuck?" He pulled out the Scepter of Annihilation and released a blast toward her position, but Gharavi was already gone.

Just as Raigar started to turn back toward him, holy magic closed in on them. It still set Bloodwraith's teeth on edge, but he was no longer undead and it did him no harm. Raigar let out a cry and clawed at himself, trying to tear away the binding magic but failing.

If he had been capable of using his body's full strength, he could have broken the spell in several ways, but brute force wouldn't be enough. Another ring of power descended on them, binding him further in place. Bloodwraith was still exhausted but managed to push himself up and saw that several mages and priests had arrived, adding to the spells.

They focused their efforts on the arm that held the scepter, preventing Raigar from using it again. But they couldn't do enough to stop him from reaching deeper into his robes. He pulled out a gem that glinted darkly and Bloodwraith braced himself for a new weapon, but instead of using it immediately, Raigar turned to him and grinned mockingly.
