Even as the Serpent’s power engulfed ours, I could see the light from Darma’s strand brightening and pulsing in an effort to shrug it off.I pulled every ounce of energy I had into my power core and redirected it into the strand that reached for my sister. Between the two of us we were able to grow the reach of our power by one more twist.The Serpent’s power dimmed momentarily under ours but then, from somewhere outside the sphere where we concentrated our power, a painfully high pitched shrieking ensued and my physical body started to react. My knees buckled and I hit the ground hard, my head throbbing under the assault.The Serpent had engaged the Brownie, whose song of death is pitched at a level so high that it can actually explode the brain. Before it did that though, it caused one hell of a headache.I stayed in the magic realm through sheer force of will and renewed my expenditure of energy through the strand. For a moment it looked like we would succeed but then the Serpent’s power surged and we quickly started losing ground.My sister’s voice in my head sounded weak.
