congrats mc, you failed spectacularly. laid your weapon down, and gave up without even trying to fight back, simply because you were faced with a familiar figure as an enemy. if that was another magician using an illusion spell or something similar, you would be dead. from the perspective of a warrior, you are an utter disappointment.
I'll be very disappointed in the author, if Blood doesn't tell him off for that. please don't let me down author, you are doing incredibly well so far, on so many levels.
