Bab 56: Shredded

"In that case, I think that I might have something good for you. After Rend, there is an advanced version of the skill known as Shred. They're similar in function, but Shred is much more deadly at the same rank and leaves jagged wounds that make it difficult to stop the bleeding if they lack magical healing.

I will get someone to bring you a skill book to see if you can learn it, or teach it to your Hawk. If either one of you knows it, you shouldn't have too many problems fighting above your level as an Awakened warrior." Overlord Drake announced.

[Better than Rend? Is he being silly? Rend is the greatest skill in the world.] Hawk complained.

[It's an improved Rend used by more powerful creatures. Trust him, it's a good thing.] Karl replied.

Then he bowed politely to the powerful warrior. "I would appreciate any help we can get. I don't know what the limits of this class are, but if we can learn some more powerful attack magic, it would be incredible."
