Tower of Yor: The Ascendants Challenge (Open and Accepting Profiles!)

The leper wavered, stumbled...

Then flashed forward, his rusty sword cracking against Marcus's own hard enough to glint sparks off its edge.

"I am the Son of Malfurion, the Breaker of Bonds."

Cheers rose up from the gathered crowd. The Son's eyes were locked on Marcus's own, breaking contact only to shove the mortal back a step. "I know why you're here, Marcus." He drunkenly tumbled to the left, faltered, then appeared to flash again, this time to the left of the knight.

"How would you feel to die right now. Would it be fitting, to lose before the climb. To have done nothing, in the Nothingness..."

A wicked spin, and the leper aimed to decapitate Marcus.
 
Marcus jerked up his sword and the two mighty weapons came together with a CLANG! and a flash of sparks.

"You ask me how I would feel about dying right now," Marcus grunted. "The answer is that I cannot. Not yet." He pushed upwards against the leper's greatsword. The blades screeched as the sharp edges ground together. "My family's lives depend upon me, and I wish to see them again before I die."
