1. This is a battle with words. This is a battle with magic. I am no mage, though I have learnt the mechanics of magic. I am no poet, though I have learnt the mechanics of words. Quoting lines, stealing lines, will do nothing in the long run. Improvise. Improvise. Occasionally, cliché is best-there is never an original story. What is the cliché here? The stone. A mirrored shield? My brother’s fighter is no Gorgon. The other-the prince and the prisoner, the princess. (A priest as a princess? Laughable.) What does the prince do? There you have it-there is the most effective, the most direct solution.
2. That was the element of surprise. It is gone now.
3. I cannot quite bring myself to care. You are entirely too experienced at this for a priest, Father Nightroad.
