”Indeed?” Emerald eyes sparkled right back at her grin and the confidence with which she held herself, and the assurance that she was good to fight all day long after a night of hard drinking. That was the sort of spirit he approved of, and took pride in for his people. Thalassa might not have currently been a Torcher, but she was showing the heart of one.
He did not reply to her final verbal jab, too busy making a physical one of his own. She took it like a champion brawler, managing to roll with the blow and come back before he could bring his arm back to block her. He managed to shift his weight back, at least, drawing his stomach in with a sudden breath. It was a good thing that he did; this time the knife sank into the feathers and through them with minimal resistance until the blade reached flesh. When Thal finished her attack there was red blood on the dagger and the Tidebreaker was stepping back fully, his hand raised. ”Hold.” The single word was deep and resonant before he drew in a slow, careful breath. A look of quiet concentration passed over his face before a pale, milky mist rose up around them, sparkling with moonlight in spite of the sunshine high overhead. The mist was refreshing, warm in the Deepfrost chill, and as it lifted around Thalassa she would find her bruises healing and her aches fading away. As for the King, he took a cautious, deeper breath and then relaxed at the absence of pain.
”Hmm. The armor is more limited than I realized,” he admitted quietly even as the plumage drew back into the silver armlet, leaving him bare-chested once more. ”Thank you for testing it with me.”
