His knees dipped forward ever so slightly, his muscles tightening as the ground beneath his feet trembled. Like a cannon blast, he shot forward in a green blur. The moment he arrived before Asher, his katana cut through the air, straight for Asher's neck in a horizontal slash.

Asher simply sidestepped this time. The moment he dodged, Lior's katana met nothing but thin air as a spiraling vortex of wind tore outward, erasing the canyon where Asher had been standing only an instant earlier.
