[minrathousian]

WHO: OPEN!
WHAT: The Inquisition's forces fight against the Venatori to prevent Corypheus from seizing power in Perendale.
WHEN: Early November.
WHERE: Perendale, Nevarra
NOTES: Violence.

On the edges of Corypheus' territory, Perendale is the site of a major Venatori offensive--a push by Corypheus' forces to take control of the city and push his influence further across Thedas. The Inquisition's forces have rallied to answer the Nevarran governor's desperate plea for support. The battle for Perendale will decide the fate of hundreds within the city's walls.

"Years of training do finally pay off." He smirked faintly, before he shoved his shield into her stomach as she starts to swing down, and slides himself under her.

"Aye, same!" It's fortunate that Skadi was watching his movements carefully and had good reflexes, or that shield maneuver would have taken all the air out of her lungs. As it is, she knows that's going to smart until a potion is taken. No more leaping, then, though she does swing her ice blade right after that. If an offense is relentless enough, it'll more than make up for that.

He feels that swat of the blade to his back, and yes, he stumbles. He takes a moment to get his bearings and hopefully get his sword up before she slams it back into him. A smirk rests on his lips still. "So who taught you? Your father? Your mother?"

She shakes her head, not elaborating on her father. "Mother's a skald, not a warrior. I learned from Bjorn, our arena trainer, and then went to another hold for the spirit warrior training. Prickly bastard, but it was worth it." Of course she doesn't let her guard down at any moment while talking, watchful for his next maneuver.
