Lin vs Niks
Lin's attack proceeded as she hoped although probably not to the result she was expecting. She felt her blade connecting against bone without first connecting with flesh, but what would be more surprising to her was the fact that the sound she heard was not the sound of a head falling to the floor but that of a metal meeting metal. The blow had also seemed to be enough to threw Niks several feet further into the room and crashed into the silhouette of a chair.
Niks rose up and turned to face Lin, his flames flared brighter. "I suppose I should've expected this," he muttered as a gassy substance formed. "But at least that confirms you're not with them. I do wonder what you're expecting to accomplish with trying to murder me, the fog would still stay."
