I just felt slightly annoyed with that 'blessed iron' thing. I mean, why have an anti-magic artifact if you are one? He could just channel his own anti-magic into the mage.

And now, my new portion of the story-

Delta woozily got up, flickering between a bird, a mess of blinking colors, and random textures. "Ugh... I think the holographic projector got scragged." Martin started to speak. "I was simply going for a target. This mage held a high bounty, as he was terrorizing this area, transmogrifing citizens and policemen alike into duck tape creatures. He was recently confermed to have teamed up with the duck tape cult, and was apparently suppling them with freshly transformed duck tape monsters. I and my adopted brother here went onto the job, and I obviously just captured this mage. We will learn more once I return him to my clients, as they will interrogate him and I will be there to hear what he says." Martin bent down and picked up the mage.
