[ Figured he'd ask— If it gets Dokja to be quiet, Amos is glad he's gone for initiating combat.
Or at least, he was, right up until the moment he recognizes his mistake — both in the way his attack misses and the way that out of absolutely nowhere, Dokja's sword connects with a part of his leg where there's no armour, drawing blood and forcing him to buckle under the suddenness of the injury, bringing him down to one knee. ]
Shit—
[ He hisses through the pain, glaring at Dokja the entire time. This would be so much easier if he could just grab him, beat him to death. That's always been his preferred way of solving problems, and here, he wouldn't even suffer any repercussions for it. Would probably be rewarded. It's a nice little fantasy, and one Amos has absolutely no time for.
Instead, while still partially on the ground, Amos reaches for the reserves of magic he still has, making gravity's pull on Dokja that much more intense in an effort to force him to the ground. He pulls himself back up to a standing position as he does so. He doesn't want to do anything potentially so stupid as to swipe at him again, but if he can pin him...
Fuck it, actually; it's just blood, and he can get healed later, as he aims to stab at Dokja's side. ]
