Hailstones raining from the sky was considered a sensitive phenomenon for this part of the world.
The last hailstorm had happened in the capital of Ferelden, the City of Snow, and had evoked panic amongst the people; after that, there was a series of political changes, which many had considered the hailstorm to have foreshadowed. Benjamin realized from this that using a hailstorm was also a way to spread rumours.
It was because of this that he chose to rain the hail and not to use a method as violent as blowing up the city gates.
"Hmm… doesn’t seem enough." Benjamin muttered to himself and suddenly soared higher into the sky and towards the centre of Gealorre Capital.
Everywhere he went, the sky started to rain hail, as though he was some deity spreading rain and clouds all about.
