From Lord John Grey To Ms. Ariadne, of Signe's Cottage
My dear --
I suppose that it is different in every world. But in this instance I did mean that if you stab another person with a blade, they do not usually carry on as if you have merely inconvenienced them. I do not know the entire explanation of those creatures, but I have fought in enough battles to have found the experience highly disturbing. I myself am not nearly as resilient, much to my chagrin, and I found the experience most unnatural.
Ah, perhaps you are speaking of the grenades? They were a bit different in my experience -- though I am finding most things are. But the concept is the same. You light the fuse and then toss them at your enemy and hope for the best.
I myself was an artillery man. Have I told you thus before? About the canons?
If you are interested, I shall, though I will not bore you with the details otherwise. For now, I am grateful that you were not out there unprotected, and indeed I remain,
Your ob't. servant, John William Grey, Esq. Heimdallhaus, Block One, House Three
