Well, sure. I meant that they managed to dodge what guards there were by fluke!

Though maybe the guards will only attack if they pass the gate's threshold... I'm just trying to think of a reason that Aoife wouldn't just rationally say, "Couldn't the guard corps handle a bunch of thugs?" Both because I want to write up an actual fight scene (since I skipped the one with the giant dog), and because rationality keeps overriding my want to just have Aoife go all Batman (or woman) on them. Just needs justifiable cause, and all that jazz.

As I have mentioned a few times, she has some—emphasis on [i]some[/i]—of the same restrictions as normal students on using offensive magic. She isn't in the guard corps like Liza, though she does have her current rights because of her honest use of her powers. That being said, there are many Magestravi who don't think all too highly of non-Magestravi, so perhaps they are being underestimated, and no one would blink an eye if they got beat up and turned in to the proper authorities.
