I had only written half of the first chapter when a buddy who was heading home on October 1 dragged me off to play Dota 2. He kept pestering me until I couldn't stand it.

When the accumulated magic finally reached its limit, the brilliant azure crystal suddenly erupted. Something like a bolt of lightning shot out, flashing out of sight in an instant. The High Elf mage standing beside the Arcane Tower turned deathly pale and swayed, barely able to remain upright. A nearby warrior immediately caught the mage and helped them away.
