I Read Stories: Greys And Smokes And Silvers And Steels by Sean Jones

 

Greys And Smokes And Silvers And Steels by Sean Jones in Swords And Sorcery

A wizard makes the mistake of revealing himself in a country town and finds himself in the arena, duelling the local champion. Magic comes in different flavours, different colours. The opponent starts with red, with fire. The wizard has little counter, the greys not being powerful like that. Yet even that doesn’t work as the opponent brings on more and more different colours of power. Powers that would be legendary the world over yet are here in a backwater town.

An exciting and clever magic duel about tricks and limits.
