Back to School Blues, Part 1

"Wisdom!" Liara yelled in warning. "Dodge!"

Sighing heavily, I did as she asked without much thought. I slid to the side as a fireball struck the ground I'd been in a second ago as if I'd unintentionally done it. Truthfully, I just didn't care. 

I sighed again. 

"Wisdom!" Liara yelled again. 

I sighed even heavier this time as I used a quick application of 'Fire Punch' to repel the fireball—correction, the iron cannonball coated in someone's fiery aura—back toward the fool who'd chucked it at me. 

Liara dealt with the remaining cannonballs hurtling at us with an 'Ice Wall' that lacked the crimson trait she'd shown off inside Castle Vlad. This was understandable as she'd been told to hide her dark gifts whenever she could.
