"Golden locks of hair
Heed the maiden's wish and build
A spire to Heaven!
Entangled Strands!"

The onrushing foe seemed a human woman, clad more in her own hair than in anything else.That hair was long, as willful as the tentacles of a hunting squid. Those tresses held wands and rings and other items of magic... and even aimed them!
Her braid tumbled down and swung wide, darting, probing, as if with a mind of its own. When she stopped in a swirl of stars, it coiled around her neck.

Aramis: Tell me, though. Do you ever dream of letting your hair down, as Queen Ilenia so famously used to?
Virginia: I can't say I do. My aunt was an amazing woman, but my respect for her comes from actions, not appearances. Not the mention the incessant burden long hair poses in battle.
Aramis: It is a problem, yes. But such hurdles can easily be overcome with enough experience. Hair can even serve as a weapon, if used correctly.
Virginia: ...Yes, yes. Say whatever drivel you want.
Aramis: It's the truth. Imagine dodging an enemy's attack at the last possible moment. You twist your body just so, wrapping your luxurious mane snug around their weapon. And ensnared in such a manner...there will be nothing they can do against a strike of your own.
Virginia: You can't be serious.
Aramis: I am indeed. Not only that, but you can even use your hair as a whip in close-quarter combat. Aim for their eyes, rob them of their sight, and the day will surely be yours.
Virginia: I admit, I've never considered it like that. Hm...
