At least, that was what she was thinking as she fell to the ground for the second time today and contemplated what was, as far as she could tell, her first real encounter with it. The force of the initial knockback had been so sudden and so strong, and so unexpected, she couldn't explain otherwise it. Science, or the process of it, is about experimentation, so at some point she'll have to try and apply it to spells, but right now really isn't the moment.

After all, her purpose for coming back out was to assist refugees in whatever way she could. Mercy notes that he's travelling lightly. His armour has taken something of a beating, like her own, nothing too dramatic, but she can't dismiss that he could potentially be more severely bruised and battered. )
