and everybody's gotta breathe somehow
Truth be told, the seer wasn't really that smart - she'd just forgotten that he'd spoken in her efforts to outmaneuver him. (Oops.) She'd thrown her dual blades in silence, only realizing belatedly that she should have answered his question. Oh well - a conversation for another time.
The first dagger missed its mark and, called back by her telekinesis, returned to her side to hover over one shoulder. The second, though, drew blood, and Alys winced at the courier's hiss of pain before returning that dagger, too, to her side. "Sorry!" she called, realizing too late that the sound of her voice would give away her position.
And it was that call that gave her away as Tal flicked a blade in her direction. She moved, but she hadn't accounted for the weather - her foot slipped on the wet bridge and she flailed wildly as she tried to keep her footing, only barely managing to call her dual daggers to block Tal's advance. The ring of steel on steel took her by surprise - she'd blocked out of some innate sense of self-preservation rather than skill - and she quickly returned fire.
