The ash thing is an old ability of mine.[/spoiler] [quote]Well done.[/quote] *The ash dispels and flies through the wind, leaving only a bloodied you, a bloodied me, and some equipment on the ground* *I give a respectful bow to you, eastern warrior style, and throw you a wet towel* [quote]You've proven to me that you can keep up.[/quote]
