Alaric looks past Nora, noticing that neither Sandra nor Jibani are anywhere to be seen, 'It looks like I will be alone on this one...! At least Jibani managed to best the other one first.'
Nora lunges forward with a downward strike, aiming toward Alaric's face, Alaric quickly shifts his foot along the ground to move to the side while simultaneously casting a spell to convert the ground directly beneath Nora's right foot into water, causing her to fall forward while Alaric dashes as far back as he can.
Nora attempts to right herself, but due to her own previous destruction of the arena's ground, sliding straight into a larger crack. While Nora doesn't fall too far, only a few feet at most, her increased size traps her between the two sides of the small crevice.
Knowing that this will be barely more than a minor inconvenience for Nora, Alaric uses the brief time it has given him to cast a newer spell of his, "Dual Affinity: Shift Hammer!"
