Alfador vs Vvrael witch

Level 101 wizard vs the feared level 111 witch...

Sonic

edit: I initially put the witch as 109, but i'm wrong, they are 111...


[The Rift]
A battered wooden gate rests against the pitted stone walls surrounding a small city. Mail-clad guards with pikes and heavy crossbows pace back and forth atop the walls. Members of an invading force, beasts of burden, and captives travel the broken street leading into the remnants of town. A bestial military squad drills on the rocky parade ground just inside the gate. Fog obscures them as they march to and fro, and the gruff barks of their sergeant blend in with the din of the prisoners at the gate. You also see a Vvrael witch.
Obvious paths: northwest, southwest.

A Vvrael witch draws her hands in close to her chest, cupping a rippling black sphere of chaos. The ebon ball writhes, as if charcoal snakes slithered over its surface, turning and twisting between the witch's palms. With a sudden gesture the witch thrusts her hands forward, hurling the black sphere directly at you!
With an acrobatic twist, you easily dodge the dark sphere!

Rows of sarcophagi line the rough stone walls of the corridor. They remain tightly shut, although hopeless moans emanate from within the sealed boxes. At the head of the hallway leans a mummy. His arms are crossed over his chest, bound by the shrouds that cover the large frame. From his back sprout two wings, also wrapped within the bandages. Although perhaps a trick of the dim light, you could swear you saw one of the wings move.
Obvious paths: east, northeast, southeast.

Heh well done man, those things are rough.

They only bolt at 470 now huh? that aint so bad then.

Mike reg

I probably should've just gotten 117, madnessed and ambushed head from the start and ended it pretty quickly, but the log wouldn't be as cool then... That's what I'll do when I fight a warlock.

Nice!

That brig seems to be doing you well.

Just to show that wasn't a fluke...

The door suddenly tips on end and flattens like a two-dimensional rendering. It begins spinning faster and faster, as though it were a madly rotating pinwheel. Abruptly, it collapses into a thin, fine line that folds in on itself in segments until it is scarcely more than a black pinhole. The dot of darkness disappears with a near-silent *POP*.

A marble wall stretches for some distance to either side of you. In the center of the wall hangs a golden scale, with a small shelf on either side of it. On each of the shelves lies a shiny razor and a white towel. The bowls of the scales are spotless, although they have a slight coppery odor. You also see a Vvrael witch and a rotting monir trunk.
Obvious exits: south, east, west.
