110 Military Ingenuity

It took all night and most of the next day to get through everyone, but in the end, all of the younger Witches showed potential, and some of the most talented could already activate their swords.

 

Like amulets, the power of the spell was determined by the inscriptions, not the activation, so it was just as good as having their trained Witches perform the service.

 

They couldn't keep it active long due to low reserves, but that would come with practice or storage amulets.

 

Storage amulets they could make easily enough if someone had amulet blanks to carve or tools to etch metal precisely.

 

Hundreds of them would be a pain, but they would be as good or better than any mainline defence unit if they managed it.

 

With that in mind, Wolfe went looking for Priya. They had reinforcements only a few hours away, so they might have materials or an idea for making materials to create a load of storage amulets.
