All those years? I'm hardly old, you know.

[Someone is sensitive about her age. Does it show? (It probably shows.)]

As for what you want to learn that is up to you. However, learning something of the blade wouldn't hurt should you be unable to cast magic for whatever reason.

[It's good to have options.]

That does sound similar to the kind of magic done in my world. Of course putting the enemy to sleep doesn't appear to be something we share between our worlds.

[Whoops. Looks like the tactless tactician has stumbled headfirst into a sensitive topic. If he says anything else to that, he's liable to dig himself deeper. Best hold his tongue... and use it for sarcasm instead, thanks.]

You're absolutely right. It wouldn't hurt my opponent. Not much. [The ones who aren't squishy, anyway.] They'll just counter my feeble attempt and crush my wanting defenses in two hits or less. And imagine if my enemy has backup to finish me off... I'd be better off ducking out of combat than openly embracing my death with good weapons made inferior by my hands. Inventory could be distributed more efficiently.

I can see where a situation like this might arise, though. Enemies that carry Silence are few and far between, but it can quickly render mages and healers all but useless for a while. [Does she know what he's talking about? He's curious to see.] In that case, a sword or a dagger might suffice for self-defense.

I'm aware of the use of Silence, dear. I use that spell myself. There are several of my former students who do as well.

[Well, they do in her timeline. Keeping all the timelines straight was a nightmare she never really put effort into sorting through. There really isn't much point to trying, after all.]

I'm not sure what the mechanics of magic are where you come from but anyone can learn to use it and magic where I come from. I like the idea of people being open to many aspects of combat since there is always something that can be countered and it provides options to someone on the field.
