Tal kept an eye on Valehna as she fought the wraith he'd kicked, but soon his attention was stolen away by one that was charging right for him. He swung his axe as it approached him, the edge catching its torso and knocking it out of his way. As it stumbled he brought the axe down, digging the blade into it's back as it hit the ground. As it was down, he dared a glance to Valehna who had fallen unconscious.<br/><br/>"Valehna!" He called, furrowing his eyebrows when she didn't seem to respond. He was taken surprise by a fist to his back, pushing him over so he tumbled onto the ground, his weapon sliding across the floor and just out of his reach. He rolled over to avoid a rock fist that was aiming for him, though he wasn't the most agile and he knew he couldn't keep dodging the attacks.<br/><br/>The Qunari lay on his back, kicking his foot out to push the wraith back before scrambling backwards to try and reach for his weapon.<br/><br/>"A bold statement." Ester teased, raising an eyebrow. "I suppose I'd miss your pointless rambling." She admitted, her smile widening into a grin. Her hand still held onto his forearm, she'd seemingly forgotten to release her grip. Her eyes finally met his properly and she shook her head lightly. "You don't owe me anything. I think we're just about even."
