Erissa noted the number of enemies, and how the others were attacking. She didn't like her mortal limitations, being annoyed with having such a weak, fragile body. And so she wanted to go beyond that. To reach a place she was not supposed to exist in. She had the abilities to climb beyond, but she would have to pay the price. Erissa thus fell silent, and closed her eyes, as she flicked her sword's tuning fork like pommel, before stroking her hand along the blade.

A harsh whine, as Erissa's eyes opened, revealing that her eyes changed, gaining white patterns in them. Her sword, surrounded by what looked like white mist. It was time. Emotion, morality, afterthoughts, reflection. All these drained from Erissa's mind, as she focused on purely the information her eyes were showing her. Time was slowing to a crawl from her point of view. Then it sped up again as Erissa compensated, and dashed forward without even exerting her body enhancement.

Her target was an orc. It didn't matter who was it, for there were no friendly orcs on her side as of now. Erissa knew she saw the enemy, and brought her sword up towards her left, cutting the orc into half before he even hard time to turn. Twisting anticlockwise, Erissa brought her sword over herself in a swift action, her blade entering the neck of another orc, before he even brought his axe down on her. It didn't stop, as Erissa shifted her right leg back and spun clockwise, her weapon cutting the skull of an orc into half horizontally, before her left fist lashed out and broke the neck of a fourth orc, sending him flying backwards.

Erissa rotated her right wrist, as she grabbed her sword with both hands and brought it up to parry a two handed greatsword strike from an enemy orc, the contact of weapons releasing a shockwave, before the greatsword splintered and exploded into shards, unable to resist the Fontaine blade, as Erissa rotated into position, and drove her weapon in a stabbing maneouvre, her weapon exploding through the orc's chest, her great strength pushing on and impaling one more orc behind her.

It wasn't hard for Erissa to disentangle her sword, as she swung it to her left with both hands, the weapon producing a wave of hard sound. A horizontal crescent which cut three orcs clean across the waist, killing them all instantly, as Erissa leapt forward with a twist, preventing an orc with a cleaver from taking her life, as she arbitarily threw her sword clean through the head of another orc. A rapid blur of her arms, and five throwing knives flew forth from Erissa, as they each sliced the heads of orcs clean off in a single throw. Landing against the body containing her sword, Erissa rolled and pulled her sword free, before leaping off the ground and dashing clean through the orc who tried to take her life, his body exploding from the sheer force.

Erissa turned and slid to the ground, as she blocked a downward strike from another sword wielding orc, before her left arm grabbed the fallen orc's cleaver from earlier and took her attacker's right leg, below the knee. As the orc fell, Erissa rotated her wrist and slammed the cleaver into the orc's crotch, before grabbing the dying orc's sword, giving it a good flick, as it spiralled through the air and exploded through the chest of another. Her now freed left hand continued on with six magicka barbs, burning the face of another orc clean off.

Erissa regained her stance with a roll, using body enhancement to lift her body off the ground with her left hand pushing, as she brought her sword down from her right and cleaved through an orc, his warhammer falling apart along the line the sword drew, his last moments seeing naught but a silver crescent. Not stable at all, Erissa launched off the ground forward, sailing through the air, as she flipped her sword and stabbed the head of an orc below her, releasing the weapon and grabbing it once more with two hands, using it as a pole, as her two legs came down fast to crush the head of another orc, which she kicked off and twisted. her sword ripping the stabbed orc's head open. Pulling her sword free, a vertical sword beam cut through a trio of orcs again, this time cutting them from head to crotch.

Erissa's eyes were the Fontaine Eyes of Perception. All she saw was the shortest path through all the enemies, and how to achieve it. And so she would achieve it, as she leapt back, letting her sword embed in the ground, catching the arms of two orcs who tried to cut her from either side. She twisted both arms, and the orcs relinquished their axes in a pair of loud cracks, before Erissa caught the axes and took their heads, performing a backflip to send her sword into the air moments before an orc brought a warhammer down  from in front of her with scant regard for his now dead comrades. Flinging the axes, Erissa killed the warhammer wielder by splitting his skull with a thrown waraxe, as the other lodged in the back of another orc's skull, as she landed on her feet. Erissa then proceeded to use body enhancement, and leapt forward and up, catching her sword from the air as she swung it across horizontally, a wave of sound flying at the ground, smashing with enough impact to crush four orcs who were unfortunate enough to be in her way.

Erissa's blood was now boiling, and she noted that she only wanted to win, with no exception. Launching a rapid flurry of magicka barbs after sheathing her Fontaine made blade, Erissa killed two more orcs, spending her last three throwing knives to take another three lives, the knives flying so unrealistically fast, each one left a dinner plate sized hole in the chest of the targets. Pulling out the Ebony Blade, Erissa smirked and she brought it down in an overhead chop as she landed, completely destroying the foe before her. She felt the rush of life force, and noted that perhaps she could enhance her strength and speed further.

The killing consumed her mind. All Erissa wanted now was to kill. Not to win anymore. Time seemed to slow, as Erissa sped up, A stroke from right to left, two handed, cutting an orc from shoulder to waist. The return stroke, horizontal with slight upward incline, splitting another from hip to waist. Pulling blade in, forward stab and charge, taking two lives. Pull blade out, transition to uppercut, one orc was sent flying with his head cut into two. Spin on heels, sword brought down and across from left to right, a strike from eye to neck, inevitably fatal. Erissa seemed to see the world in monochrome and death now, as she followed through and lifted her blade, taking two more lives with a cleave. Then a leap forward, over her opponent, as Erissa sailed over the orc and spun, her blade cleaving his head so the face slid off the front, before a landing roll. Erissa instantaneously righted her stance and parried a downward quick slash with a sword, as she freed her right arm and drew her Fontaine sword, taking one more life. It wasn't that the enemies didn't try to attack her. Body enhancement was so fast, they enemy might as well be standing still.

Erissa transitioned from swing to stab by drawing her right arm inwards, the orb of sound heading off her sword's tip cleanly blasting an attacking orc back, crushing all his ribs in the process. Swinging the Ebony blade one handed, Erissa jammed it into the shoulder of an orc, forcing it down, as she changed her grip on it to reverse, turning clockwise with her blade, now bringing it from her left to right, as another wave of sound headed towards the enemies, decapitating one. Erissa then proceeded to run forward, knowing she couldn't maintain her eyes for much longer, as headaches began to set in. It didn't matter, though, as she moved fast and drove her Fontaine sword through the back of another orc, before running on his dead body and kicking off, pulling the blade free and forcing herself to pirouette through the air, a whirlwind of blades that slashed and slashed, flying over a line of orcs.

Erissa finally landed, holding the Ebony Blade in front of her, as her Fontaine blade was pulled back, ready to stab. She was in a low crouch, as she began to cry blood, and deactivated her eyes. It wasn't time to keep up the eyes if it would mean they would reject her and cause her to slip into a coma. The five orcs she was unfortunate to pass over? Their heads were all slashed apart to mush.

(58 enemies. She isn't as skilled as Fionn and she can't repeat this again and again in a short time since her EoP is now deactivated. Ebony Blade helped with using Body Enhancement a lot more.)
