"Um....kinda?" Was there a such thing a kinda dark? She was slightly puzzled and caught off guard by the question. Arya had always thought them dark, but now that she thought about it....

Tate put his hands behind his back and fixed his eyes on the students each in turn. "Who has heard the phrase 'The best defense is a good offense'? What does it mean?"
Arya continued to jot down a few more notes, legs swinging as Tate moved back to the front of class and moved the discussion forward. Her hand went up again, eyes following soon after as she formed an answer.
"I've never heard the phrase, but I think I know what it means. It means that you can't win in a duel by just defending yourself with only defensive spells. You have to counter attack. Offensive spells can be used defensively as well, just like defensive spells can be used offensively." Yup. She had so paid attention in the lessons last term.
