But before I could do anything rash, Sir Geraint lifted his sword. He planned on attacking Merleen with a swift strike. If that assault would land against Merleen, she would die instantly from that damage.
I was around a few feet away from Merleen. Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't shield her on time. And besides worrying about Merleen, I had to deal with King Arthur. He wouldn't let me look in the opposite direction, claiming I should worry about myself.
I gritted my teeth and continued thinking of a way to leave my position. However, King Arthur didn't give me any breathing room.
But before that blade could injure Merleen, Fenrir's scream alerted our ears. She zoomed straight at Sir Geraint and took the blow. That wolf girl also countered the knight's attack and slashed his face, eventually killing the man.
