Verbal Trial

The Prime Shadow and Guildmaster stared at the formation projection, both silent for a while. The Guildmaster shook his head in disbelief and then picked up his cup of tea, sighing at what he saw.

"This boy is something else," the Guildmaster said. "To think he would approach the soul trial in such a…direct way. He's the complete opposite of what it means to be an assassin, and his ability to assess situations and find the optimal solution is quite lacking if I'm to be brutally honest."

"True," the Prime Shadow said, "a true assassin would avoid battle as much as possible, and quickly assess the situation. All those who passed the soul trial did so quite quickly, as its mostly a soul talent test. If you have the required soul talent, you can see through the illusions and find the exit. If you do not, you have no chance of finding it, and can only perish within, fighting against an enemy that you cannot see."
