Magic was one of those skills that would grow weaker and more difficult if too much time passed without its utilization. Though she was able to roll away from the path of the stunners without a hitch, actually creating a shield against the offensive spells was harder than she expected. It took her a couple of tries to cast what had once been second nature. Months on the run was threatening to take away her prodigious magical abilities. If she didn't figure out a way to get more practice, she would be in even more danger than she already was.
