"By Moradin's Furnace..." Donkexes said, scratching his hair. "What else?"
Colin briefly described the withered, branch-like monsters he had encountered on his first outing. He remembered the map of Dragon's Fang Castle mentioning such things around Silverpine Village.
After finishing, he asked, "Are those things called Blights?"
"Yep. Those things appear in forests with piled-up corpses, or they're transplanted by folks who know how to cultivate them. I've heard some Blights have indeed appeared around Silverpine Village."
Colin recalled fighting the Blights, remembering the nimble little monsters that rushed him from all directions and their weakness to fire.
'Come to think of it, monsters from the Northern Lands, like Winter Wolves, don't like fire either.'
'Thinking about it that way, the answer was obvious.'
'Wouldn't a range-based Flame Attack have them dead to rights?'
Colin said, "I choose [Burning Hand]."
