"Guh!" I let out groaning sounds, while trying to escape the cementing pool before I become completely stuck, but…
"It's too late!" Stefan screamed, electricity buzzing from his fingertips.
A giant magic circle appeared above my head, covering the whole expanse of the hardening puddle that entrapped me, in an instant.
