Elidian shot back through the trees, tumbling and rolling upon contact with the ground. Digging his blade into the ground to stop himself, he staggered back up to his feet. Having no time to be dazed, Elidian struck a defensive stance, turning his blade into a reverse-grip and running the broad side along his forearm. "Where the hell is Aleks when you need him...?" he asked -- more to himself than anything -- while taking a few steps back.

His foe would soon show up, and Elidian couldn't allow himself to take such a hit like that again; not without putting up a fight first, at least.
