Thalassa
Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
And there are many paths to tread
Thal was slightly surprised to feel her kick land. It succeeded in sinking into his chest, more so than her blade, but it failed to create the distance she desperately needed. As a result, her foot became clasped in his vice-like grip, preventing her escape. Pulling it back would compromise her balance, so she didn’t fight it. Plus, she had bigger problems as another punch came flying towards her stomach.
The blow took her breath momentarily, causing her vision to darken at the edges in pain. It would definitely leave a nasty purple mark and have her taking shallow breaths for days. With a gasp, she bent to place her hands on the ground. In a flash of instinct, she used her free leg to rotate into another kick towards Hadama’s head. Although she hoped the movement would twist her out of his grasp, it would be even nicer if the hit landed to give her a moment to catch her breath. Otherwise Thal would probably find herself hanging upside down by her foot, almost completely vulnerable. And that was not how she liked to be perceived.

Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Until the stars are all alight.
