She sees their black, leathery wings flapping dolefully, blotting out the sun. She tries to cry out, to duck aside as a hideous barbed tail draws back to stab, but her every movement is as if she were enveloped in deep, cloying mud.
The sting stabs down. She feels her veins scorched by a torrent of sudden, burning, pitiless fire!!!...
And she sits up, coughing and gasping, her grey eyes wide and bewildered, one grimy, blood-stained hand reaching for her throat.

Then she can see to the healing. Maybe even study that staff," he adds hopefully.
