Atticus growled as the ice manifested in front of him. He ground to a halt as he brought the musket forward towards the wall. A fight ain't what we're here for. Don't stop! His aura changed, the cool breeze being replaced by a warm suffuse light that gently illuminated the area. A moment later, the musket barked as a semi-real bullet rushed out and impacted the wall of ice in a gout of flame. But instead, the musket belched a puff of black smoke, doing nothing. No no no no not now! Atticus banged the butt a few times, energy flaring along the length before a plume of ash and soot dislodged from the barrel.
