Chris used telekinesis on a downed branch to intercept the thorns. "Right."
Casting a spell impromptu like this wasn't what he cared to do, but if River was right - and he had no reason to believe she wasn't - it was his turn to do something.
"Where the earth becomes impure, clean it now to ensure a barrier that evil cannot pass, a barrier that for us will last."
He was happy to see a circle of light spread out from under his feet to a ten foot radius, enclosing them both in a dome of light. The monster hissed and jumped back as the protective circle touched it, but didn't run away. Stalemate.
