Forest of Blood: Chapter 3

Though they had expected no less, the lightning quick reflexes of the woman amazed the knights. Seemingly from nowhere her blades slashed out for them and they were barely able to raise their own to parry the blows.

As Jedrik lost his footing on the wet ground, the cloaked woman used her blade to push him away and spun towards Cromar. She raised her dagger to slash at his body while both swords were blocked in a stalemate.

Jedrik struggled to regain his footing and balance as Cromar barely got his hand up to grasp the woman's wrist preventing the strike. He was startled by her strength but was able to hold her off momentarily.

The older knight closed on them as Cromar began to overpower her but then Cromar shifted his weight and, like Jedrik, he faltered in the slippery mud.
