Hearing the demand from the woman and seeing the spears aimed at her
Z'leyra knows she must keep the claw away from them. Though she would
like to use Astral Fire, Quarrells or some other offensive spell or even
just engage in combat she calculates that casting Insubstantiability on
herself gives the best chance of keeping the Claw from falling into
their hands. She knows any spears thrown may potentially interrupt her
spell if it damages her. Her armor is good, but not impervious.
Hopefully she will be lucky. At least any spears thrown will leave the
spearman having to ready another weapon.
Mentally bracing to complete the spell even if injured she casts
Insubstantiability EL2 on herself. This is the highest EL she can cast
it in one phase. Casting it on herself allows her MDV to help the
casting, which should overcome any Purifications against Balance magics.
By the time they can melee her she should be insubstantial. Casting the
spell she twists her body for emphasis to her words, to allow her
buckler to sweep around to her left and to throw off the accuracy of any
spears thrown.
