बन्धूककांचननिभम् रुचिराक्षमालाम् पाशांकुशौ च वरदा निजबगहुदंडै:। बिभ्राणमिन्दुशकलाभरणं त्रिनेत्रम् अर्धाम्बिकेशमनिशम् वपुराश्रयामि ।। bandhūkakāñcananibham rucira_akṣamālām pāśa_aṅkuśau ca varadāṃ nijabāhudaṇḍaiḥ। bibhrāṇaminduśakala_ābharaṇaṃ tri-netram ardhāmbikeśam aniśam vapur āśrayāmi।। I take refuge day and night in Ambikā whose half body is the three-eyed Śiva adorned with the radiant half-moon. Her color is gold and red like the bandhūka flower. In her (four) hands are seen a beautiful rudrākṣa rosary, a rope, a hook, and the mudrā of boon giving.

Summary: To save Zaun's future, a young Sevika tries to infiltrate House Medarda's vault in Piltover.

Excerpt after cut:

Sevika readies a syringe crafted by her, but filled with one of Singed's drugs, aiming for the back of the woman's neck.

Then the woman stills, before slowly looking straight ahead.

"I wouldn't do that, if I were you," she says, voice commanding the space, before she looks down again and keeps writing.

Sevika doesn't move.

"I'm assuming you're here for an attempt on my life. I'll have to dissuade you from that. Though I originally came here for a bit of peace, I do not mind a bit of war. A tiny, tiny bit of it, considering my presumptions about your fighting skills."

The scritch scratch of the pen on paper kept going as the woman speaks, leisurely, but not lightly.

"If you chose to kneel in front of my desk and beg forgiveness, I'll go easy on the punishment I see fit for you. Cut off a hand instead of an arm. Perhaps if you strip, and the sight brings me pleasure, I'll settle for a thumb."

"Fat fucking chance," Sevika says.

The woman turns her head to the side, but where Sevika had expected those red-painted lips to be tight in distaste at the foul word (sometimes she cursed Enforcers with the foulest words she knew to make them stumble and make them easier to punch), there was only a slow and wicked smile.

"Go on then, girl. Try to use that needle. See what happens."

Sevika's nostrils flare as she rises to the challenge. She pretends the syringe is a small knife to make the cutting motion quicker.

Before she even knows what's happened, the woman has struck the bend in her arm and elbowed her in the stomach.
