A Hippogriff was not as fast and strong as a Behemoth but Solus was no Lith either.
Her deep violet aura gave Shasa a clear measure of her strength. The gap between Solus and the Hippogriff was small, the combination of Life Maelstrom and toxin-enhanced potions made him superior both physically and magically.
Solus perceived every movement of the incoming mace through the Full Guard enchantment of her armor but her body failed to keep up with the attack. She knew from the moment she had seen the Hippogriff that Life Maelstrom would have been a huge factor in their fight.
It was the reason she had prepared the tier five Spirit Spell, Griffon Fetters, while keeping Shasa in check. Emerald chains erupted from her body and wrapped themselves around the Hippogriff, restricting his movements.
