Where the Swordsman of Rage was perhaps too familiar for the young rebel, Odessa faces something new here; a pint sized, foul mouthed, absolute brat of a mage. While Odessa has a noted soft spot for children, Palom is well known for pushing even the most patient to their limit, almost as if it was all part of some battle strategy. But stilll, the same strategy that works on most children will serve Odessa well here. Always get in the first word, let them see an ominous Storm on the horizon, be sure to blend healing words in with the shredding, and if all else fails, remember they'll need to sleep before you will. The Wind Rune makes this advice perhaps a little more literal, but as with any child, you have to go with what works.
