The din of combat below only meant one thing; the girls were in trouble. Silas couldn't see Adelise get struck down, he was far too focused on the more pressing matter of the very angry man before him. The bandit was half-dead as he staggered a slash at Silas, but the blow fortunately scrapped harmlessly against his leather armor. The blow Silas was going to return in kind, however, was not.
