"Finally, you decide to engage me in melee. Did you assume I would be inferior to the man you fought previously, even if I only use a sword and not a polearm?" smiled Taliesin as he readied his sword. He began by taking a few steps to the left, seemingly innocuous, but to make his opponent change direction slightly.

Multiple Darkmatter stakes formed around him once more. Taliesin was definitely not going to give way anymore...

"Although irritating, it appears that I have to utilize the higher powers of my ability to fight you. Very well, now that you have earned my wrath. Your power is the ultimate expression of endurance, but let mine be the unstoppable torrent that swallows you whole."

(Gilgamesh vs Heracles, to those who understand the refs)

Eidys noticed Ysabel moving towards her and smiled. She was a skilled archer, but she was definitely more skilled in melee combat. Although she observed her opponent used a wind based ability, and thus she doubted she could actually engage in close combat.

Hence, the main thing she would do would be to close distance. Once she could employ a sword in melee, cutting down a mage shouldn't be a problem ... so long as the mage wasn't a sword wielder as well.
