[ Yield? Crow grinds his teeth, finding himself driven into a corner. With the snake at his back and this jerk attacking his front, he has few options. He has very little wiggle room to get out of it. Still...]
I'm not giving up that easily!
[He's not going to surrender especially since this fight is just getting interesting. It'll be a shame to walk away from it now without witnessing what else Joshua has up his sleeve. While Crow preoccupies the other man with his shadowy barrier, the redhead summons his familiar for assistance. He thought he could take Joshua on his own, but the man is proving to be more of a challenge.]
Onyx! Do that thing we practiced!
[The large tri-pedal crow caws from above, a bunch of feathers shedding from its wings, showering the combatants below in crimson feathers. The feathers might seem harmless, but they carry a curse for whoever touches them. If Joshua or the serpent happens to touch any of the plumage, they will find themselves unable to move. The spell isn't powerful, with enough willpower the hex can be broken easily. So Crow uses this chance to try to cover Joshua with his veil of darkness, gathering his shadows and trying to envelop the other man.]
Sorry for the delay!!
