In the fight against Morris, Nora goes hogwild with the Mantlepiece and Merlin lets rip with tenth level witch bolts, doing damage in the hundreds to Morris.

The fight begins with Emva chucking a potion in Merlin’s face, but unfortunately it’s just a potion of lying from Ediera, and doesn’t so anything.
