[color=mediumorchid][i]Fast... and not sacrificing power for it either. Like every other damned opponent showing up these days.[/i][/color] Alvios blocked the attack with both light-blades, studying his whimsical opponent. Tall and lithe, moving with some mixture of grace and ferocity. Black sword, longer than average. He would probably need to stay in Lightforge form a little while longer, although it seemed like the fights were separating up some, which meant he could focus on a single target rather than covering an area. Alvios gained his footing, turning his two-sword block into a parry and moving into a riposte to at least force Vale away from him. The eight-blade halo followed up his movements, four of the blades launching forward consecutively at Vale. [color=mediumorchid]"None of the others mentioned a [i]'Vale'[/i] in the Order. Care to introduce yourself proper, or will we just let our swords to the talking?"[/color]
