Agreed completely, but...I still just don't see it. Ssarak trained for strength as well, and he started with a biological advantage.

I didn't see Free's post. As I said to him, Fallen is the one who revamped the Esyires, so you'll have to double check with her, but if I'm right about it, Alaira shouldn't be able to simply overpower Ssarak. Hold her own? Yes. She's been fighting for most her life. But in terms of raw power, I don't think so.
