Magic
Magic words flow by
fire streaks towards the enemy
who returns the favor
with fast waves of lightning
I fight them off
with a rowan wand
and a protective staff
my robes whip around me
and I conjure up another spell
filled with all the power
I could muster
It knocks them off their feet
but not for long
and we continue our deadly dance
But his blow hits me hard
and I crumple to the ground
motionless
The words
game over
flash on the screen
I sigh
and restart the game...
