Michael came running at us when he noticed what had happened and wanted to join the fray. Daphne and I didn’t have much of a plan, but it seemed like we didn’t need one. As Michael went to punch me, Daphne slid in front of me, the vibrant purple shield meeting Michael’s fist. At the same time, I unleashed an arc of magic from Excalibur at the closest Abomination. The being was cut in half where the magic struck. The top half of the being fell to the side in a heap of undead flesh while the bottom half kept moving.
