[oh! okay. okay, that's not too bad. this isn't going to be a fight to the death or anything, which is good because she doubts very much she could—well, actually. hm. she should probably keep herself in check, shouldn't she.]
[and the best way to keep herself in check is to punch the blade instead, right? if they don't have weapons then they can't fight and she wins by default. so, okay, she does manage to dodge out of the way of the swing, but she's still just off to the side of the blade. nowhere near close enough to actually retaliate against Batoal.]
[with a smirk that's way too clever for its own good, she lays all her Intoner strength into a punch with her brass knuckles right up at the flat of the blade. granted she's literally never tested this before, but shattering his blade with her fist should work in theory. right?]
