	Even if the two sets of magic aren't precisely in unison, they're still effective enough together to stalemate the storm. Its not receding, but its not spreading any more either, and here and there, the intensity is weakening. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Daniel comes in as well. He isn't the same kind of mystic as Lucas or as the lovely Akilah. His own brand of magic is much more aggressive but in no way truly black. He lands then weaves together a very basic spell that mimics a magic missile throwing five bolts of magical force at Maelstorm himself intent on knocking him out. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Maelstrom thought he was out of sight of the entire field - certainly not visible to the mages from their relatively safe position. So when a third shows up and actually locates him, much closer to the main field of battle from where Lucas inscribed his circle - and then has the audacity to actually wound him with one of those bolts, he quickly shields himself with every defensive effect he knows, wind and radiating lightning and fog - and flees into the safety of the statue.

It doesn't stop the storm - he can cause it to happen whether he can see it or not, but it will make it easier to fight, now that Maelstrom is limited to just trying to increase its power in general, and less capable of precise, directed effects.

	Sensing something changed, even though he can't see Maelstrom from the relatively safe place he put up, and didn't even know who, specifically, was creating the storm, Lucas redoubles his efforts, pouring his considerable will into one storm front, pushing it back slowly, bit by bit.

	Akilah, too, sensed the change. However, her efforts were focused still on the storm and trying to push it back. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Arg!" He guards himself then snarls in anger as he has to dodge a bolt of lightning. But he thinks this helped. He takes a jar of pennies out and draws a circle around himself and begins to focus. He is going to pull the power off of the storm as much as he can. Now that the other magic user can't do too much more directly the tides might just turn. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

It did help. It also becomes obvious, however, why Lucas set up to do most of the magicking so far away from the field - an undefended spellcaster is a vulnerable one. Seeing the circle made and the casting begun, Winterkill lunges around from cover, trying to grab hold of one of Daniel's hands to begin sucking his body heat from him, betting a spellcaster with a frostbitten hand won't be as effective as usual.
