<h3>At a Glance</h3>
<p><b>Slashing Darkness</b> is a spell.</p>
<p>Probably originally named <em>Nvestro&#8217;s black ray</em>, and not completely renamed before publication.  There are two supporting facts.</p>
<ul>
<li><em>Nvestro&#8217;s black ray</em> appears in the table of contents but not in the text.</li>
<li><em>Slashing darkness</em> appears in the text but not in the table of contents; it is a ray attack.</li>
</ul>
<p>This leads to the question of who <a href="https://xaeyruudh.wordpress.com/2014/10/03/nvestro/" title="Nvestro">Nvestro</a> is.</p>
