((Blimey, left this stewing too long. Smiling One ! What say we continue!))
The battle had been naught but trickles, skirmishes opposed to clashes, as the armored giant strove to cleave this young man in two, spear and all. The ebony axehead left dents and cracks in the ground from his strikes, and the air roiled and swirled as he twirled the weapon in practiced stances.

He could respect his opponent's persistence in range, caution. A bit too dainty (or so an orc would say) for combat, but to each, their own. The movements were jumpy, trembling. Like a rabbit, he compared. Small, quick, somewhat adorable -
*CRASH!*
And annoying to catch, as his strike yet again missed, the man dancing out of his range.
"Or is evasion and defense your offense?"
