Rania Dazeir was more fox than snake and although the thief was trained in a great many things, she was still no match for the enemy she was facing now. His movements were otherworldly; sharp, quick and viciously precise, the masked stranger aimed his blade at her torso–an attack she was able to block with her own dagger.
His second attack, this time aimed at her leg, forced the woman to sidestep and he rushed past her with a breeze. She wasn’t his target and he wasn’t interested in her, his attention clinging to Valren–and Valren alone.
It took until after Val had been punched in the face, but she was able to dig her dagger deeply into the man’s back. The weapon struck below his waist and she purposely aimed for one of his kidneys, knowing that it would take the life out of him quickly.
The words he had screamed just moments prior still echoed in her ears
