Ma'Jharo had not expected to be suddenly be pinned underneath a Vampire Lord, but he wasn't about to be killed by some B-class Dunmer who had to fall back on changing forms to win a battle. Besides, he'd fought werewolves before-- a Vampire Lord was not that far of a cry.

While Talyn's claws were effective against his armor, Ma'Jharo's armor was extraordinarily tough, and he had a few seconds' time to react. He decided to use those moments well.

Ma'Jharo was no mage, but he knew enough magic to get him out of a pinch such as this. When Talyn next raised his claws, Ma'Jharo suddenly unleashed a plume of fire onto Talyn's exposed chest. When the Vampire Lord, who was already weakened by the sun, screamed in agony and was forced to back up to avoid being incinerated, Ma'Jharo scrambled away, throwing a cloud of dust from the arena floor right into Talyn's eyes as he did. While the Vampire Lord reeled, Ma'Jharo grabbed his scimitar and whirled around to face Talyn.

Luckily, he didn't really need to face him. All around him the place was erupting into a riot, and the sight of the vampire lord was in no way helpful. Many of those in the crowd fled from Talyn, but some of the braver few attacked him. It was a bad idea, but as long as they were helping him, Ma'Jharo didn't really care. So Ma'Jharo came back and joined some of them in attacking the Vampire Lord-- who, while strong, was definitely outnumbered and most likely outmatched.
