Regret. You [i]bitch[/i]. It's the most worthless and impractical Word you could have hit her with. It doesn't slow her down at all - in fact, she comes at you harder and faster than before, ablaze with the glyph of Wrath. She flights and she claws and she burns and she is not slowed down at all. Ailee Sundish, after all, has a lot of experience with fighting on through regret. No Word could have done less to slow her down. No Word could have done more to hurt her. Every pain that she was keeping just out of focus is now in agonizing razor clarity. The life she threw away tears at her like a ghost. All of the things she sacrificed to reach the Heart weigh around her neck like anchors. But fuck them and fuck you. Even if she can't inflict this pain on you she'll make sure you learn that this was a fucking mistake. The Archmage burns, and the Archmage drowns.
