"We of the Giant Lions do not retreat."
Ulnap jumped down from the carriage. Walmo and two of the others with him joined Ulnap and faced Misho's group.
Likewise, Misho, Maia, Pear, and Flora stayed close together as they faced them.
"Giant Lions? Are you bandits?" Misho asked.
"That's right."
After answering his question, Ulnap took the lead and ran towards them with the sword in his hand. The rest followed behind him followed with their swords raised.
Ulnap's sword glowed a bright white light, and he slashed it at Misho.
"Yahh!"
Misho blocked the strike with the pole of his spear.
A metallic ting echoed across the grasslands surrounding them.
–––––––––––
13/35 HP (-10)

He managed to block the sword, but it became a blunt attack. The force split open the web of Misho's hands.
"Ahh!"
The pain momentarily caused Misho to see black.
"Fireball!" Maia shouted with gritted teeth.
Each use of the spell art took a bit of her MP. It got more painful as it ran out.
