Camius Demoted

Cambyses took her third life today.

She personally charged the menacing bodyguard using her quick feet to close the distance from the right, intent on striking him with her right-handed short sword, and when the man tried to go for a horizontal slash towards her head, she swiftly ducked, while simultaneously flicking her sword from her right to left hand and then brought the weapons into his chest by using a wide, left-handed arc, putting all her mass and momentum into the sharp steel point by using her heel as a pivot and driving the steel point all the way into the heart.

"Arghh…" The man fell in disbelief, his brain still processing how he went from being a healthy, strong, living breathing man just seconds ago to now dying.

Cambyses was that fast.

The ten men behind her also charged and soon the four bodyguards were killed and the gang leader captured.
