<Snipped quote by Memory>

*With a sound of flesh being torn, blood black as ink flows down from your weapon, as I allowed myself to take the hit but in that moment of my seemingly obvious defeat you find yourself choking blood as my sword slides between your ribs with a sickening sound and I laugh weakly.*

*Glances at the blood on my sword*
A worthy trade.

There is the old man I remember-
*after the first hit I block each addition hit with blades that shatter each time*

*As if teleporting, appears above you and impales you with the claymore, rocketing us both into the ground and splitting the surface of the planet to the horizon*

*Proceeds barreling toward you without slowing down, but just before impact I come to a very sudden and un-telegraphed halt, throwing my arms to my side and projecting my own aura forward to envelope you*

*A metaphysical chainlike structure abruptly yanks me to the side*
