This might have been the start of a longer comic, but who knows if I'll ever do that. I do have some magic effects I haven't gotten a chance to show off yet.
Anyway, what would have happened is that a mercenary shows up, hired by slavers to take out Aerie. A wizard slayer or someone very resistant to magic so that most of Aerie's offense can't touch them. She'll have put up a valiant fight while the others escape, but got her ass kicked until she remembers being taught that there's no shame in retreating and living to fight another day, so does that.
A red haired dark elf has been one of my default RPG characters since... probably Daggerfall in fact.
