[@zelosse] [@TheDarkTemplar] Things were never quite as they were on paper it seems. Ailsa did expect an enemy to face and defeat, but a goblin was what she was prepared for. An orc was definitely a much more...interesting challenge to say the least. Still, she made an immediate and necessary visual cue. A spear instead of some sort of rod for magicks. She smiled. A battle of blades...That felt far closer to her speed and skill than having to evade spells. The orc made accusations at the two of trespassing. Her smile quickly disappeared as she pointed her sword in his direction. She was willing to fight this creature, especially as the chances of it fleeing this elven outpost were next to none, but she will not stand for the error he presented. [color=powderblue]“That’s quite the claim sir. For you have also trespassed on a land belonging to another, and as such, we have come to fix that issue!”[/color] With that, she went into a stance with her sword still having her right hand gripping even harder on the hilt. Her legs fastened themselves as she calmly walked around the area of the armored orc. They were ready to move as need be and in any fashion that need be. While orcs may be of a more simple mindset, it’s unwise to underestimate the opponent. More importantly, it was disrespectful. Even to a brute, she could not let that offense slide. As she calmly eyed the orc from...well under her arm, she decided to chime in with a question. [color=powderblue]“What is your name sir? It’s common in my lands to give name before a confrontation…”[/color] She said, though her face took a look of analyzation at her vary words. [color=powderblue]“Then again, we tend to give our names in my affairs dealing with swords…”[/color] She shook her head before looking back at him. [color=powderblue]“Anyway, I am Lady Ailsa of Snowgael. What is your name, opponent?”[/color] Admittedly, however, she seemed to have forgotten the important fact that she was with a companion as well. On top of that, she had, for the most part, acted of a separate accord without even realizing it.
