Sohalia
Melita's reluctance to discuss Stormbreak struck Soh, as this was the second time the young woman had avoided mention of the region. She wasn't one to press, however, as it wasn't any of her business why Melita was so reluctant to talk about or visit the city. The moment slipped away with only a quiet word of thanks for Melita's congratulations.
Soh huffed a laugh as Melita chided her. "Well, all right, then," she said. At least she tried to make sure that Melita was taking care of herself.
All thoughts of the young woman's fitness to spar vanished the moment Melita came in swinging, sweeping her staff towards Soh's legs. She moved belatedly, angling her staff towards the ground to stop Melita's blow, but it was too late, and she did a quick sidestep instead to attempt to dodge. Unfortunately, that didn't work either, and Melita's staff rapped her on the ankle. Soh hissed in pain - Melita certainly didn't pull any punches - and swung her own staff towards Melita's shoulder.
