[Iron League] The Wrath of the Elements

[Ashla]

The sound of hooves thundering against stone caused Ashla to turn her head to the distance. Well, weird things could happen in Althanas and nothing could phase her. She definitely knew that Felicity could be weirded out by a fox and a faun. Yes, a fox was merrily running towards them with a faun.

The faun appeared to have strong ram horns. Her magenta hair was thick, freely falling behind her back. Her brown goat legs were nothing unusual for this rare species. She wore a simple but elegant white blouse. Ashla could see the chainmail under her shirt as well. For her long yet numbered days as an adventurer or avenger, Ashla had only seen a select few faunas. It captivated her for a moment, as the face itself seemed ever so briefly familiar. No distinct memories were undug at the moment, however. Aside that, she knew it was time to fight.

Ashla knew that Felicity had a soft spot for animals, so she decided to send her towards the faunas instead. As frost started to emit from her white fingertips, Ashla spoke to her former pupil, "You take care of the faun, I'll get the fox. We'll separate them."

Without waiting for her younger sister's reply, Ashla drew her damascus hand in a half sword with lightning speed. In a flash, Ashla races towards the little fox, her light footsteps pattering against the rocks with grace and dexterity. Internally apologizing to Felicity, the yet unnamed faun, and herself for hurting an innocent creature, Ashla raised her sword in the Roof Guard and delivered a swift diagonal left-to-left upward cut. This military cut was usually meant to take out areas beneath the human's thighs; but it was now used against the flame coated creature's fur.
