Dimensional Descent

Leonel watched Emna move; At times she would seem like a prowling cat beast and at other times she would become a sliding shadow; All of her movements were absolutely seamless and flowed from one to the next without the slightest wasted energy;

There was only a single person that Leonel had ever seen move like this; and that was the love of his life; Aina;

Aina always fought without the slightest bit of wasted energy; This was different from the more restrained style that Leonel had, albeit subtly;

Leonel was lost in thought. Emna made it to the fat old man and attacked with

the big bellied man, or even just alert him to what was

a lot sharper; Not only could he apply pressure that found its roots in his demeanor and temperament, he

couldn't do it with such absolute assurance, but ever since the Emperor's Might tablet brought him along to perfectly grasp its secrets and integrate with his Runes as though he had comprehended them all personally,
