Emily Hargraves had died many years ago but she had a strong will and refused to give up on life until her mission was complete. Sitha was unsure of how to handle the man and was confused by human interactions but she wasn’t so she took charge. This man was a predator of women and needed to be dealt with as such.
“Back off before I hurt you,” Emily ordered.
“You don’t tell a knight of the realm what to do,” Sir Jack moved close with his hand on his blade. “We keep order for the lands.”
“You don’t do a very good job of it when you threaten the citizens!” Emily countered. “I suggest you not come any closer to me.”
“Or you will do what?” the man took a deliberate step forward with each word.
A gust of wind struck the man square in his chest as commanded by the beautiful woman and sent him flying several feet back to the ground. Emily glanced carefully around at the man’s companions to see what they were up to. They had pulled their horses back a short distance and looked like they were debating what to do next. It was one thing to mess with a defenseless peasant girl but quite another to harass a female spell caster who may have a great deal of power. As they were thinking up their next actions she was placing magical defenses on herself.
“I suggest you find your sport somewhere else before you get burned,” she directed her threat against Sir Jack to help divide him from the group. Emily suspected that the others were not always innocent bystanders but she didn’t want to encourage the others to assist their friend.
“I won’t let you beat me,” Sir Jack got up from the ground as he pulled his blade out and started towards Emily.
She shook her head at the stupidity but she let loose great cone of flames from her hands shot forth coating the man in fire melting flesh and bone dropping an ash filled, a charred black suit of armor to the ground. She whipped around to face the horrified other members of the group but she was thankful that none of them had pulled their weapons yet.
“I suggest you see to your friend and you go looking for whatever you are looking somewhere else because I don’t want any more dealings with you and I am certain you want no more dealings with me,” Emily stated cautiously.
