I decided to branch Madora out into fire magics to make use of a couple extra fire spellbooks, including Explode.
So I sent Madora out all on her own and tried out her brand new 摘xplode spell on a group of peaceful cultists wandering the forest. That ticked them off and they started a fight. The lead cultist started by summoning an Ice Elemental on the fire surface beside Madora. It died instantly. Then he raced up to towards her and slipped onto the ice that was left of the elemental. The first student blinded Madora, but the third ran up and also slipped on the ice.
(I finished off the teacher, but unfortunately, because Madora was alone, the surviving stand-up student spammed her air-staff's "Staff of Magus" at her, which stunlocked Madora until she died. But until then, it was funny.)
