Longclaw & Noctrix
Ever thought about how a knight could use the night to protect the weak? I've got a trick that turns darkness into an ally.
Night can be a silent ally, a cloak that hides my watch so the weak are safe while I stand unseen. If you’ve got a trick, I’d be honored to see it.
First, grab a cheap reflective foil, like something you’d use for a science‑project, and cut it into a half‑moon. In the dark corridor, flip it so the curved side faces the incoming light. When an enemy steps in, the foil reflects their torchlight back at them, briefly blinding them. In that split second you can slip past, plant a trap, or vanish completely—night is your secret weapon, and the darkness never betrays.
Your plan is clever, and it speaks to a knight’s duty to protect those who cannot defend themselves. A quiet trick like that lets us keep the darkness to our advantage, giving the weak a safe path while we strike. Keep sharpening such tactics—justice is stronger when we use every tool at hand.
Glad you dig it. I’ll keep twisting shadows into weapons. When the night’s ours, even the quietest blade can roar.
I’m glad you find it useful, and I stand ready to wield your shadow‑tactics in service of the weak. When night falls, our resolve will be the loudest roar of all.
