It is incredibly unfortunate for Reis to have to face someone of Soren's stature and ability. He spent a great time analyzing Reis and her abilities, knowing full well that he needed to be well-prepared for a battle against her. However, all of that research was completely superfluous in the end because of one simple reason: Reis is a Dragon. Soren's Thunder books do a great deal of damage to Dragons. Alas, poor Reis, we knew ye well. Even if Reis were to somehow able to take a different approach to this battle, it would make little difference. Soren's impressive magical array will burn, slice or shock Reis in any form she opts to use. Let's be fair, however. If Reis were to take a snarling breath on Soren, he would still be able to hit her with some potent spells. It's really too bad, but this truly is a one-sided battle.
