Mirrorless

Considering the dozen archers with their bows drawn at his head that surrounded him, he was unnervingly calm. He just sat there, stupidly long pipe billowing thin smoke, even as I drew my sword.

"No need for you to waste what little life you have on protecting a useless rebellion, old man."

He puffed at his pipe then blew some smoke into my face. I sighed, and nodded at the archers.

One shot managing to hit one of the other archers, maybe just unlucky. But all of them? That smoke-

He swung an empty hand and blood filled my mouth.
