Thus, what is of supreme importance in war is to attack the enemy's strategy. That quote from Sun Tzu raced through my head as Myth Chaser raced through the openings in the hedge maze that Flamethrower had burned for us.
Honestly, it was a good plan, turning an otherwise indefensible oasis in this sand valley into a nearly unassailable piece of land protected by a magical hedge maze. It was nothing short of brilliant and something I wished I'd thought of too which is probably why I chose the counter-tactic that I used. Just so I could poke a hole into this brilliant strategy.
My counter plan wasn't all perfect though. The heat generated by being the efreet alone was bordering uncomfortable and slipping into scalding territory. There was the smoke caused by the burning hedge wall too. It got into my nose and was slowly murdering my lungs, causing me to cough again and again.
