A Bend in the Rocky Passage
The rocky walls of the passage here begin to narrow as it bends northwards.
The rocky and jagged appearance of the walls here make it seem as if this
part of the mines was rather hastily carved out. There is a faint trickle
of water tracing a small crack in the southern wall. There is also an
overall damp feel to the rest of this passage, from the stagnant air, to
the deep earthy tones of the rock.


(Glowing) A thaumaturgic circle is inscribed upon the ground.
A fierce winged angel stands here, bathed in a holy aura.
Looking like a human toddler with wings, a cherub flies around here.

A thaumaturgic circle crumbles into dust.
A winged angel yells 'This is your last chance, Krezawk, to pray for the Light to have mercy upon your soul!'
A winged angel's wrath MANGLES you!
You have been KILLED!!

Breakthroughs can happen that fast.

You can buy some extra time if your familiar is though enough to engage it.

If you regularly have angry creatures I recommend you get the dismissal edge and plough all your mana into one dismissal.

Also it can be helpful to have a strong circle somewhere you can get to easily (like your recall) if you don't mind advertising where you live.

Or just stuck up the deaths. Or let the angel get itself killed.
