I have a very bad case of disc hernia, and today, I had back surgery to fix it—somehow. For the last two weeks, I was completely bedridden, and all I did was play games and read books.

Two days ago, I finished Avowed as a wizard, clocking in around 55 hours. I guess it stuck with me subconsciously because while waking up from general anesthesia, I started screaming, “I am a wizard! I am a wizard!” multiple times.

I had no idea I was coming out of surgery, and I only realized it when my doctor said, “Okay, wizard, can you raise your leg for me?” At that moment, my brain went: “Wait, why is this NPC asking me to raise my leg? Oh… why am I in a bed? Oh… this looks like a hospital!”

It finally clicked that I was still under anesthesia, but by then, everyone was smiling at me like, “Okay, wizard!”

To be honest, Wizard is the best way to play Avowed.

The book was the only mechanic I found interesting
