towards Boots of Travel. You may be able to get a sneaky kill by hiding behind trees, then ambushing and casting Laser and Missile on a clueless enemy hero, but don't count on it.

E. M. Fleming's "Model of Artifact Study" and the Work Boot The work boot has become a hot item for many girls and young women.
