[Chris counts the number of targets. One, two, three, four, five... Chris draws back the bowstring, and sure enough, five energy arrows spawn along the shaft of the bow. But what she has in mind is trying to create more arrows than there are targets. She lets the bowstring ease back into position, causing the arrows to disappear.
Then she pulls it back again, trying to will the creation of six arrows instead. But only five appear.
Chris frowns. She repeats the process, willing only one arrow into existence this time. One appears. Then she begins to mentally add more arrows one by one. Just like before, she can’t make it past five.
At this, she eases the bowstring and sighs as the arrows disappear again.]
We can only shoot as many arrows as there are targets.
