399:452.
Twenty minutes into the fight, Rita's health dropped below 400.
She had already given up attacking Dark Mistblade. Now she was focused entirely on evasion.
The Warden was even harder to deal with than Mountain Isles Rita had been. Every bit of damage Rita dealt was reflected back onto herself. Worse, it was not ordinary reflection. Each strike also triggered her own Absurd Story.
It was like she was beating herself up.
Only now did Rita fully understand why Dark Mistblade had taken no damage from Caged Bird.
Caged Bird never harmed its own caster.
She did not know how long this skill would last. But she refused to sit still and gamble on the unknown.
While dodging Dark Mistblade's relentless assaults and studying the strange mechanics of the ability, Rita slowly moved closer to Mistblade's real body.
If the separated Warden was practically invincible, then the obvious answer was to target the original body and find a weakness there.
