All that changes when he sees the life-and-death struggle unfolding before him. Now, with nothing left in their arsenal, magic once again threatens them with its fiery fury. In a flash of inspiration, Cyric attempts to save Giselle, but is it enough to turn the tide of battle in their favour? Has Amarantis met his match when he crosses the path of Brother Cyric?
