Taliesin didn't respond by taking the hit, as he immediately twisted his legs and curled into a ball to roll under the outstretched arm by pushing off the ground with his feet. Despite being a mage, he certainly had the agility of a rogue or assassin.

That, and he uncoiled, drawing his sword from its sheathe (he uses a hip sheathe not back) in a horizontal low slashing maneuver when he uncurled from his roll, the edge of the blade aimed for the back of Bhas' leg. Taliesin used a hand and half sword, so his weapon was not that short.

Taliesin fully expected the man to turn to face him, which was why he aimed for a leg wound, so it would slow down Bhas' turning. Then this would open Bhas' back to attacks by Kyrnil or someone else.

Taliesin knew they would take long to defeat this particular half god, hence the tactics to slowly wear him down.
