The clang of steal could be heard echoing as the two warriors clash with their weapons. Gaksi, surprisingly enough, had been a worthy challenge for Xerxes as they have fought throughout the night. She had met every strike he delivered with one of her own, her fierceness and determination shown in her eyes. The Desiertian felt bad for his eventual task of ending her life as she was a warrior that he could respect. He knew, however, that this needed to be done. It was not personal, just business.
As she goes for an overhead strike, Xerxes sees his opportunity. He quickly sidesteps the strike and delivers a piercing jab with the tip of Jotunn’s Fang. She barely dodges the assault but gets nicked just enough for the weapon’s nasty effect to start working. “The hell did you do to me?” She says as her body begins to move sluggish. “Jotunn’s Fang has the ability to slow down anything it cuts.” He says as he makes another quick slash to her body. She drops her sword to the ground and attempts to remove a concealed dagger but her reaction time is too slow. Xerxes smacks the dagger away and slashes her body several times, each time slowing her down more and more. Before long, her body stops moving. The Desiertian sighs as he sheathes his weapon and moves closer towards the Neko. “As a warrior, I commend your strength. The settlement will unfortunately suffer in your absence. This was just business though I know that will not ease you. Unfortunately, outside of this place being secluded, there as another reason I led you here.”
