As he activated [Tempest Steps], his body becoming a blur of motion as he launched himself toward Master Lorcan with a burst of speed.
Lightning crackled around him as he closed the distance in an instant, his halberd raised high for a devastating strike.
The crowd held their breath as Lassim struck, the air hissing with the force of his swing.
But Lorcan was ready.
He showed his battle intuition as he twisted his body, sidestepping Lassim's strike with effortless grace.
The halberd sliced through empty air as he performed a [Slam], the force of the swing sending a bolt of lightning mana surging into the ground with the weight of water behind the halberd creating a crater where it struck.
Before Lassim could recover, Lorcan's hand snapped up, and a ring of lightning shot out from his fingertips, spinning through the air with terrifying speed.
Lassim barely had time to react.

The lightning rings seemed like a pretty cool for a fighting style to me! Yet, if you have any ideas for cool ways to use the lightning element in a battle style, please leave a comment! I’d love to include it as one of the many future mentors that Lassim will meet in this mini-story arc. I’d ideally like Lassim to meet 10-15 different style fighters so please, I’d gladly welcome your own takes on a potential character! Feel free to include a name or even a little backstory if you’re interested and I’ll throw in an acknowledgement of thanks in the future author notes!
I look forward to your comments!
