Great story, terrific closing line. Though I think the mage is from Ankh-Morpork (fantasy London).

Any would be invader trying to attack Ankh-Morpork are promptly assimilated before they reach the gate and have their own line of restaurants for their particular cuisine set up within a week.

Nope, not Aussie. I don’t know of any Australian who uses the word shite. We say shit, like a proper swear word

[WP] You are a budget mage. While most of your colleagues use costly ingredients, rituals that take weeks to prepare and use a new spell for every problem, you only know a few spells, use common household ingredients and prepare rituals within minutes. They unjustly deride your work as shoddy.
