[Neebs]

*Neebs coughs blood, his staff twirling in his hands as he parries Lord Apocs ferocious onslaught.
*Ducking and weaving Neebs is pushed back, his mind races through spell after spell and laws of magic.

Many books and styles of magic exists, this is the one that Neebs thinks of now;
(Magic comes from the mind and surrounding energies. Words, gestures and tools are mearly conduits to focus the power, or used to enhance the spell itself. Casting without words, gestures or tools, is possible, but will have a far greater drain on the mage. In theory any spell is possible under any circumstances, however great care must be taken not to exhaust yourself, an exhausted mage is a dead mage, as mentioned in CH6 Know your strengths.) - quote from - Magic for the Master, CH7

*Neebs his mind full of magic laws, controling his elemental energy balls, and trying to block/parry Lord Apocs attacks, is struggling.
*The swirling pattern of the elemental balls is helping keep Lord Apoc at bay, Neebs staff stopping anything that gets too close.
*The elemental balls gradually start to drift away as Lord Apoc presses the attack and Neebs has to concentrate on his staff work.

(Tools!!! "Words, gestures and tools are mearly conduits to focus the power")
(Can save your energies)

*Block, Parry, Twist, Duck, Roll, Parry, Parry, Dodge
*Clash, Clang, Swish
*Lord Apoc sensing his advantage pushes forward and swings the flat of his blade, horizontaly at Neebs Head
*Neebs raises his staff to block and Apoc braces for the impact as the weapons collide,
*Neebs colapses his staff and ducks,
*Lord Apoc sword continues its swing through the air, off balanced by the surprise at no impact.
*Neebs extends his staff as he lunges (gesture) with his staff (tool), the end conecting with Apocs chest. In that same instant, Lightening energy travels from Neebs hands down the staff and into Lord Apoc catapulting him backwards a good distance with a Bang that echos round the arena.
*Neebs grins and spits blood
*As Lord Apoc tries to stagger to his feet, Neebs throws his arms wide and brings back the elemental energy balls to him.
*Flinging his arms forward, he fires them off at his opponant,

*Lord Apoc blocks the first and second
*The third hits the shoulder pushing him off balance
*The fourth hits his chest driving him past the mine entrance
*The fith hits his hip, spinning him off balance to waver on the edge of an open shaft
*The sixth hits him square on, tippping over him over the edge of the shaft falling into the depths of the mine below.

*Neebs gathers his energies around him, preparing some more elemental balls and awaiting to see if Lord Apoc will emerge able to continue.
