She was dazzlingly fast like a shooting star. That was the first thing that went through Thunder’s mind the first time he’d seen Maven in the first area dungeon of Eldhaven in the game of Eldhaven Online.
The blade of her rapier was so fast that even his eyes hadn’t been able to follow, it was just a blur. Of course, at the time he hadn’t known that the Player was a girl but the speed and precision of her strikes had been enough to make the former Beta Tester stop and stare.
The cloaked Fencer had been something out of a dream, what with the graceful way she seemed to dance around the goblins. He only snapped out of his stupor when the mob disintegrated into the fractals of light and noticed the way she wobbled instead of standing tall.
“Hey,” he called softly so as not to startle the exhausted looking player, “Are you ok?”
He raised his hands in front of himself, fingers splayed wide when the other turned, rapier up and ready to strike. He watched with baited breath as the other panted for a moment before sliding the rapier away expertly.
“What do you want?” she spat irritably, stalking forward. Then she, because her voice was soft and feminine despite the anger, stiffened and fell in a dead faint.
