Lyra moved through it like water.
One step, a tilt. and shift.
Every attack missed by just enough.
But they weren't done yet as she couldn't stay completely still.
Torren's pressure came with greater force, while followed in again.
Faster now and more direct.
No feint this time.
Just brute force as his steel cut through the air.
SWISH!.
Lyra blocked.
CLANG.
The impact rang out.
Torren followed immediately.
Another heavy strike of with his shield
BOOM.
The ground cracked slightly under the force.
Lyra stepped back this time.
A small step.
But it was something.
Arthur's eyes sharpened.
They're pushing her.
Selene didn't stop.
Her arrows came faster now.
One missed.
The next almost didn't.
Lyra tilted her head just in time.
"Better."
Then..
Ryn disappeared for a second.
Then—
He came from above.
Using Torren as a screen, he launched himself upward and dropped straight down.
Timing it with the moment Lyra dealt with Selene's last arrow.
