As talented and powerful as he was, it quickly became apparent that he didn't put much thought into personal safety. If one were to catch him off-guard, he would be defenseless, and so one day the other mages got together and discussed a way to fix this problem. They would give him a shield, it was decided. A shield made entirely of ice that would cover his body and protect him from physical harm. The boy seemed thrilled with the idea and readily agreed to undergo the experience.

At first, the boy was excited at what he was feeling. His entire body tingled with an odd sensation, and his skin felt prickly and cold. But Then there was a crack, and it felt as if his head was being torn in half. He fell to his knees, screaming and reeling with pain unimaginable. His vision was filled with shapes and colors of all sorts as his hands gripped fiercely at the air, seemingly grasping for something to save himself. He could almost feel his skull sunder as the blood began pouring out of his mouth. Tears streamed down his face and it felt as if his eyes were melting and dripping down his cheeks as well.
The air was filled with crackling, and his tears began to freeze onto his face, the blood pouring down the side of his lip curdled and froze. And then the quiet blanket of unconsciousness drifted over him and the screaming ceased.
