[ RIP to Eustace, about to be slapped in the chest with a holy purification wrecking ball.
Almost. He has enough presence of mind to catch the sparks of light emanating from Dextera's fingers and enough experience under his belt to know that light radiating out from a person's hands on the battlefield is always bad news bears.
Eustace is fast but Dextera is just as fast, and though Eustace does his best to duck and dodge out of the way, Dextera still manages to catch him square in the arm, sending shockwaves of pain radiating up and down. A shout of pain lodges in his throat and he stumbles backwards and down, uninjured hand shooting out to steady him against the ground before he topples over completely.
For a moment, he's left wide open, vulnerable to any further attacks as he catches his breath. After already tussled a few times that day, his endurance is running low. ]
