Zelda fell, deader than a doornail. Reese stepped back, panting. Their wings flared up with stress and they seemed not to know what to do.

As Adelia deflected her younger sisters' magic, Jovie gently touched Reese's shoulder. "Hey," she whispered kindly. "Are you alright?"
@Serpentess health_and_safety language
Kathrina growled and sent more bolts at Reese with one hand, sending bolts of necromancy at Adelia.
Veronica noticed the fight and tried to compose herself, failing. Nonetheless, she brought out her special scroll and started to read. Dark clouds formed above, black lightning shooting down to touch the remnants of the undead. No trace was left of the remnants. Bolts shot for Adelia, Jovie, and Reese.
Undead rushed out from the castle, a few newcomers among them. They rushed for Adelia at Kathrina’s command.
@RiverTheSeawing
"Zelda was my mother," they told Jovie, "so I'm a little panicked from everything that has happened so fast."
@RiverTheSeawing
(Question, what is Kathrina's magic supposed to do to Reese?)
@Serpentess health_and_safety language
(Kathrina is trying to dispel/destroy Reese. And to clarify the scroll, it’s a ‘cleaner’ spell that wipes out all traces of a battle, dead or alive. The scroll is supposed to be one of Veronica’s most powerful spells, hence only two scrolls, unlike the dozens she has of other spells)
@RiverTheSeawing
(What would it do to something that's neither?)
@emilyevewrites group
"I get that, but- Look out!" Jovie reached over and shoved Reese out of the way of a bolt headed right for them.
Adelia desperately summoned as much light as she could and surrounded herself, Jovie, and Reese with a protective shield. It was weak, but it was there.
@Serpentess health_and_safety language
(Good question. Um… 50/50 of not harming said creature or hurting it bad. I could flip a coin, or you could. ‘Shrug’)
@RiverTheSeawing
Reese backed up a little bit, touching the light. "Ow," they said under their breath.
@RiverTheSeawing
(Question, would the bolts destroy the twins too or just everything else?)
@emilyevewrites group
Jovie looked worriedly at Reese. "Does that hurt you?"
Adelia winced, but she managed to keep the delicate shield in place.
@Serpentess health_and_safety language
Kathrina screamed furiously, summoning three gargoyles that charged at her three enemies. She quickly summoned three more.
Veronica’s spell cleaned the rest of the area, even taking Zelda’s body, which only upset her further. However, the spell struggled to grab at three shielded folk. It devoured the gargoyles and undead.
“No! Dispel it! Dispel it!”Kathrina shrieked.
Veronica threw the scroll away. She couldn’t dispel it, only quit casting and let it fade. She continued to cry.
Kathrina howled, summoning as many gargoyles as she possibly could.
(She can only summon a dozen at once, max)
@Serpentess health_and_safety language
(Not the caster. And Kathrina is semi-inside the castle doors. Everything else is fair game)
@RiverTheSeawing
"A little," they answered, "don't worry about me." They grabbed their ankle, revealing a small hole where it had touched the light.
@Serpentess health_and_safety language
(If you need me to change the spell at all, I can. I know I just threw out a powerful one here. Hopefully not too overwhelming)
@RiverTheSeawing
(You don't need to change it, I was just curious.)
@emilyevewrites group
(So if Adelia lets down the shield, what will that do to them?)
@RiverTheSeawing
(I'd have to flip a coin and Jovie and Adelia would probably die.)
@Serpentess health_and_safety language
(Lol. While the storm lasts, it’ll attack her like everything else. I’d say maybe a few minutes of waiting to let the storm fade and she’d be fine)
@emilyevewrites group
Jovie looked horrified. "Adelia, put down the shield," she urged.
Adelia shot her maid an are-you-actually-crazy look. "The gargoyles and lighting will-"
"I can take on the gargoyles, and you can deflect the lightning," Jovie shot back. "Reese can't stay in here."
Adelia looked doubtful, and she didn't let the shield down yet. She did, however, slightly dim its light.
@Serpentess health_and_safety language
Kathrina slipped inside the castle, pure anger and hatred in her eyes. Her gargoyles and the charging undead fell to the storm. However, some undead remained inside.
Veronica, oblivious to Kathrina, watched the shields. She hoped the storm would get her sister’s murderer.
The storm zapped at the shields, causing them to flicker a bit, but they remained up. As the minutes passed, the storm started fading and less bolts came down.
When it finally faded away, Veronica whimpered and looked to Kathrina. She gasped when she saw her sister had vanished.
@RiverTheSeawing
(I've got an idea, hold on.)
Somehow, Reese found themself outside of the shield. They panicked, before being hit with a bolt. Once the bolt cleared, all that was left of them was a vial of shadows.
(Note: Reese isn't necessarily dead, just unmade.)
@Serpentess health_and_safety language
(Ooh. I like what you did there. ‘Thumbs-up’. A better alternative than flipping a coin)
@emilyevewrites group
"Reese!" Jovie shrieked, kneeling on the ground beside where Reese had stood.
Adelia released the shield, in the mean time remaining acutely aware of any remaining bolts that might be aimed for her or Jovie.
