	*the knuckledusters become a sword again*

	You can go first.
 - 
   
	Got it. *dissolves into the ground, and reforms behind you, holding the blade at your neck*
 - 
   
	Mortar help!!
 - 
   
	Wait, why?
 - 
   
	"I'm trapped in shadow form!"
 - 
   
	Damn, that's not good...
 - 
   
	[b]I suddenly fall to the ground and look at you [/b] What the heck?!?
 - 
   
	I did nothing! *I hold my sword at you to extract the shadow* That should hold it off
 - 
   
	"I'm terrified."
 - 
   
	It's okay, this is normal... Try just practicing before fighting with it
 - 
   
	"That's the plan."
 - 
   
	Do you think you can power your new vines with shadows?
 - 
   
	"I don't see why not."
 - 
   
	Try it
 - 
   
	"Hope you don't mind." [b]A use my vines to pick you up off of the ground then spawn a cloud of shadow beneath you. I let you go for a second and you sit on the cloud, floating above the ground.[/b]

	Ooh, nice! *I hold my sword down, and the shadow is absorbed*
 - 
   
	"Did you just absorb it?"
 - 
   
	My sword does it!
 - 
   
	"Wha-what? And why does it absorb the shadow?"
 - 
   
	Well... this is actually two swords fused together. The one I got from the black market, the other was from a shadow form of me, and can manipulate shadows.
 - 
   
	"Interesting. Well now we know that I can use both. So what do we do? I dont want to go to far with the usage of my powers and potentially harm myself."

	Shadow is like salt. Use a little in the meal and it will go a long way. Too much and it harms the tongue.
