poleaxed: static; angry; hand; fight (i can grow.)

She’s had a barrier cast on her before, of course, but it’s a surprise. From the way Ben talked about his magic, it was as though he could only mangle people.

A column of blue lightning calcifies the tree nearest her. She feels the heat on both sides; there is Gabranth with his blades again. She’ll have to tell the nobles later that they are enchanted; Gabranth cannot be a mage. Not for his own safety.

Doesn’t matter now. Now, focus on the fight. The poleaxe is a bludgeon and a javelin all in one, though she’s no intention of throwing the thing. But a hearty stab at the dragon’s underbelly is all she needs to get swiped by the creature, coming down hard in the dirt.

Perfect.

When she stands, which she does and with evident ease, it’s with a new strength. Rushing forward, she joins Gabranth with a new strength. The swing of her poleaxe goes deeper into the beast’s flesh, making it flap its wings and howl.
