Theryssa listened to both men. When Elestar finished, she gave a single nod.
With a deft movement, she returned to the cabinet, put away the Scorching Ray scroll, and selected three other scrolls, each marked with a rune engraved on its seal. She placed them before the group with a care that suggested they were not things to be treated lightly.
"Melf’s Acid Arrow," she said, indicating the first scroll wrapped in a burnished copper ribbon.
"A spell of corrosive force. Ideal for foes that resist blade and flame — or anything that thinks armor makes it untouchable."
She tapped the second, wrapped in earthy green.
"Barkskin. It toughens the flesh like old oak. Not as flashy as a shield of flame, but far more likely to keep someone standing when the blows start to fall."
Then, the last — a pale blue scroll with silver thread sealing it.
"See Invisibility. Creatures from other planes, old spirits, or certain conjured things often shroud themselves. This will reveal what others miss. Use it wisely — there are some things best unseen unless you’re ready."
She stepped back.
"They are not world-breaking spells," she said,
"but each one may be the difference between falling into the dark… or walking back out of it. I give them freely. But I trust you’ll put them to use when the moment is right."OOC:
