As Thale is battling the pirate King, he is struggling to keep up. Despite his best efforts, he is unable to land a decisive blow on the pirate King. The pirate King, on the other hand, seems to be getting stronger as the fight goes on. Thale is starting to feel like he is running out of options. He knows that if he doesn't find a way to turn the tide of the battle, he will soon be defeated. He starts to wonder if it was a mistake to take on the pirate King by himself. Despite his doubts, he continues to fight, determined to avenge Elara's death.
Thale decides to use the terrain to his advantage and starts to move around the area, using trees and rocks as cover to avoid the pirate King's attacks. He also tries to use his speed and agility to dodge the King's attacks and get in close to deliver counterattacks when he can.
