Long ago, an Emperor commanded the greatest martial artist of the time to demonstrate his skills before him. When this man appeared in his court, the emperor asked why he was considered the greatest in the land.
The artist said, “I’m only the second-best martial artist in the land. My teacher is the greatest because he never needs to demonstrate his abilities.”
While the Hooded Lady has used another technique primarily throughout this story, that doesn’t mean that is the ONLY skill she has. A warrior must have multiple talents to adjust to the chaos of battle.
Quite right, Skew. A successful warrior pursues every advantage available to him… and after all, that’s why the Lady had Leonard make her that sword. However, she doesn’t think of herself as a warrior primarily… and she had come to the conclusion that any entity she needed to kill would be vulnerable to her death touch vis-a-vis its own murderous nature. (A logical assumption, but one that proved very nearly fatal in the case of Belahm. Beware the exception that proves the rule.)
oohhhkaaay! S&M much?
Think that was more of a “That was luck”.
