The arrow sliced through the air, finding its mark on the Hippogriff's unprotected flank, eliciting a roar of pain and frustration.
Meanwhile, R-Jay, her sacred staff raised high, channeled the divine energy within him. A shield of light enveloped the team, providing a protective barrier against the onslaught of the Hippogriff. R-Jay and Luxi soothing chants and healing powers sustained the warriors' strength, ensuring they could continue the fight.
