Stalagmite Improvised Weapon

A jagged, natural stalagmite wrench from the cavern floor becomes a brutal weapon in Romana’s grip. Its sharp, glass-like edge glints in the dim pit light as she drives it against Aukon’s skull mid-incantation, shattering his mental hold. Aukon snarls, more enraged than wounded—the stone itself cannot kill him, but the interruption costs him his leverage and control.
