I fell on the marble floor with a muffled thud.

"What are you talking about?" I asked through my clenched teeth. Laying on my side, I was completely defenceless. I tried to use Fallen Grace, but my mana refused to obey me. So, I wasn't able to use magic here. That was good to know in advance.

"You truly have no clue, do you?" She said, reaching towards me.

"What the hell are you talking about?" I shouted. "Let go of me!"
