Salome toughened her skin as best she could with her Aether, making it almost as hard as stone. Even if she took an arrowhead on, it would merely chip away at her with a slight chance of getting lodged under her skin…
Well, a mundane arrow shot by a mundane archer, but the shots from the archer she was facing were much more harrowing. Possessing some enchantment or enhancement that sharpened and reinforced them.
With a hefty flap of her wings, Salome shot forward toward the three, but before she reached them, she flapped her wings again and shot herself to the ceiling. Then, she kicked off the ceiling, angling herself over the knight and at the archer, the greatest threat.
However, it seemed the knight's shield did more than just disrupt projectiles.
As Salome zipped through the air, she felt an odd force slightly change her direction, and she ended up crashing into the tower shield.
