Didn't shoot me, at least at first. I ducked underwater, she shot my transportation device, and the water boiled. I couldn't get out before it flooded my throat and my gills. And I don't have magic right now, even if I could've managed to sing through the damage.

When she shot me directly, it was a mercy killing.
