>"Well good luck with that!" Archer sends back, as she draws away from Caster, more sand erupting where she had just stood.

>She is not quite between you and Caster. Caster is ahead and to your right, while Archer is less far ahead and further to your right.

I was joking in lieu of having any actual good ideas.

> Let's make a break for it towards Georgia and see how far we can get before Caster knocks us on our ass.

>You dash for opposing Master, leaving your wall behind. He turns to face both you and Archer as well as he can suddenly drawing his hand down his guitar's neck in a dramatic fashion, drawing out ap powerful sound. As it washes over you, it feels like you've been socked in the gut with a bat! You stagger, nearly falling. You don't really see it, but you catch a glimpse of something forcing Caster to make a fairly drastic movement from the edge of your vision.

>You stagger forward a few more steps, and put down another wall; thankfully this time it works without much problem.
>"You okay?" Archer sends.

>"Maybe," Archer says. "He hasn't hit me any harder, I think."
>Georgia seems to be staggering away, more toward the inland to the south than anything. You think she may still be blinded.

>Archer is in the center of the sandstorm, her cloak and hair whipping about wildly. She's trying to squint against the sand and keep her hands on her bow, but you imagine with all that wind, even a legendary archer is going to have a hard time managing to hit anything.
>"Could be a bunch of things," Archer sends.

>You torso aches pretty fiercely, but you think you're going to be alright. Archer is having a harder time. While she has Caster preoccupied, she isn't really doing much to occupy him at the moment, as the wind and sand rage around her.

>"Fine, I'm just going to close in on him," Archer sends back.
>You move after Georgia. This time, Caster focuses on you, his music shifting to a higher, cleaner pitch. Archer Dashes toward him, bow at the ready. You find the wind is starting to get stronger around you, more sand whipping into the air and starting to sting your eyes.

>You close your eyes, and can only hear the wind growing louder, and the sand stinging your face. The song comes faster, gusts of wind start to buffet you, sending your hair flying in about every direction. You can hear an angry shout from Archer.
