CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!
Elysande hacked her sword at her opponent with unmatched hatred and fury. Every swing of hers carried the sorrow of betrayal and the pain of heartbreak.

"Heh," Alvertos sneered in ridicule. "You should ask your father that, young lady."
"What—" Before she could even speak a word, the ground underneath her turned greasy.
Unbeknownst to her, Alvertos had conspicuously cast a simple spell that caused her to lose balance and stop her momentum.
