**********************************************************

Willing the wand to silence, Avora repeats her minimal incantation to read the waves of life and magic. She is surprised and somewhat dismayed to note the same massive, formless cloud of energy she observed before the corpses shambled to the attack. Beyond the cloud, there is still no sign of her would-be opponent in the mist-shrouded depths of the garden.
“Your doormen are no more,” she declares confidently. “Soon you will need to face me personally, Sorcerer. Would you have me tear apart your work here, leaf-by-leaf and root-by-root until there is nothing left of this, your twisted design?” She turns lightly in place, her senses scanning the mists, stalks, and leaves about her. Beneath it all, she observes a shift in the play of energy, like the changing heartbeat of a child that sleeps through a nightmare. Again, she finds herself amazed at the depth of the overlapping layers of sorcery lying all about her, fitted and interlocked like a jigsaw puzzle standing on edge. Having blasted her way through the waves of half-living attackers, Avora realizes she has only stripped away one row of jigsaw pieces, exposing a dangerous array of sorcerous divots and spurs to trip and snare the careless.

Pausing in the light of the setting sun, the wizardess realizes with some disappointment that her would-be opponent may not be present or even alive after all. “Perhaps not,” she mutters aloud. “Perhaps this is nothing but some unfinished construct caught in its own repetitious cycle.” Turning back toward the arched gate to the ruined Chorus Grove, Avora shakes her head and makes for the stone path.

Two in one day! As ever, Avora was drawn using the wonderful reference material provided for me by Viator-Defessus and the model "Ava." Thanks, guys!

Enjoy!

Note: Twisted Plot and Demon's Due are a work of fantasy and fiction. The artist/creator in no way condones this kind of treatment toward any woman or man, by living person, gremlin, plant, assassin, ratman, viscous fluid, programmed device, animated home furnishings, or otherworldly spiritual beings. Furthermore, the artist opposes the marginalizing and restriction of women in general by any institution, political and/or religious, including those which have individual women amongst their membership touting/promoting their own happiness within that institution as evidence that ALL women should feel the same way. This includes the religion I was raised in and which I have utterly discarded from my life over this and other issues.
