Somehow their weapons affect us, but ours can't even scratch them." He explained. I looked at him, put one of my swords in his hand and chuckled. "Parlor games. Only to amuse women and small children. Go, find the ring leader and cut him down. If he falls, so does his army of phantoms." I said. He looked at me with a smile, the turned to his men. "Alright boys, you heard him! Go find yourself a sorcerer, and cut him down where he stands!" He yelled. Then men gave out a yell, then charged across the field, searching for the person behind all this.
