[center][h2][color=#770A37][u][b]Casana, G. Lecor[/b][/u][/color][/h2][/center][hr] There it was, the act of desperation, the moment just before someone gave up, no matter how spirited they were. She couldn't help but revel in it as it occurred, couldn't help it at all. Her mana suddenly conducted through the chain as it passed over Alexis and the chain curled, the spikes twisted just so, and then extended in a single instant. None of them struck the girl outright, instead they'd spear into the ground in select locations, barring essentially all movement if they succeeded. If it worked Casana, having released arcane energies on the surface of the ground beneath her, would suddenly accelerate to full speed, vanishing from Alexis' perception. The attack would be so fast that Alexis wouldn't know what hit her if it worked. Suddenly the girl would simply go limp, falling unconscious as Casana struck her in a way that didn't utilize any of her forwards momentum, but delivered enough force to knock the girl out. Her movement would stop just behind Alexis, a grin on her face. If any of the above was interrupted however, things would play out differently.
