Wred Halius

Every attack strategy has a hole in it, Wred knew this to his bones. With each surrounding swipe they attempted he simply pushed his sword forward to block one incoming blade and ram himself out of the trap in the opening he made himself. It was difficult, especially with the on coming sweeping blades. Every time he managed to escape their trap, they simply rotated around and gave an even tighter push.

He could read an attack well, and not only defend against it, but plan many moves ahead to catch his foe off balance and strike him down. Dozens of attacks, those were harder to navigate. He could barely read where every blade was coming from let alone prepare to defend against. Read them he did, however, and he read at a perfectly right moment to stand perfectly still, and the blades swept by him. The hole in their strategy was found, not in brute strength or sharpness which had only kept him alive the last few goes, but following their trap to it's source. They were a peace-keeping force, trained to fight in a peace-keeping manner, meant their goal was to disarm him.

They probably did not count on his enchanted blade, however.

When they pinned him down, all his momentum left him, and he barely push his blade forward enough to lightly tap one of the guard's legs, but he did, and his sword drained the energy out effectively, loosening their hold over him quite a bit. Though he could not kill them, he managed to force men to rub up against his blade quite a number of times, draining their energy, causing him, in his mock-struggle to loosen himself from being pinned, to break free.

No time for any further dancing. He decided to plunge. The hole, it was there, as the torn up road drilled crevices into the streets. He plunged for the sewer tunnel, or whatever is was, sword in hand.
