Chapter 11 - Part 12

Pienna was now a swift hawk, changing her smaller sparrow that hopefully the wizard would not notice for the faster bird of prey. Herschem was watching the ground, not her, but he saw her as she flew at him. He fired a wand almost point-blank at her.

And missed. Pienna was one of the few druids who could cast spells while in animal form. A conjured wall of wind shoved the flying web aside, and she landed on him, changing her form one more time. She was a species of ape that she had seen long ago in Breland, a powerfully muscled animal that wrapped her arms around the Aundarian wizard and began to crush him.

The wizard howled, and struggling to cast a spell, but she had him pinned. The only thing he could do was fly, trying to gain as much altitude as possible.
