To everyone asking about the Arbok thing, that was a mistake. I was writing that at three in the morning, and thought 'hey, the slayer shouldn't be invincible so… I know! This snake bite can get through the cracks!'
It was stupid, it didn't make sense, and I'm sorry. I get it, if your gonna damage the Slayer's armour you need something stronger than teeth. I won't do that again, I was just trying to think of… something to help me wrap the chapter up. Rest assured, I think it was stupid, and I really feel like there was a better way, but live and learn.
