History from my notes:

• The New Martians Hate and Fear the Old Ones -- Sophronia's illusiory army, nearly naked, red head to toes, plastic armor / strange super metal. Bows -- Martian Energy Weapon. Spears that would return to their hands -- Magic Energy Spears

• They're All Fakes!
• The One True Martian

• Minor: Hit by a building
• Moderate: Everybody's Playing With My Head -- And the Old Martians Look Angry

Murray fell of an island -- No One Could Have Survived That!
