Hajin chased the bird off into the trees, which left just one threat still standing in the pit.
The second signature came in low and fast off the right-hand wall, a lean figure with two long ears laid flat against the wind. She crossed half the pit before her feet even seemed to touch the ground, closing on Juna with both fists drawn back to strike.
Juna didn't give up so much as a single step of ground.
The rabbit led with a kick that could have folded a man in half, and Juna turned it aside with the flat of the glaive.
The impact rang down the shaft and shoved her boots back through the dirt, though her grip never loosened. She rolled the blade around and answered with a cut that forced her opponent to throw herself clear.
For a heartbeat the two of them stood apart, taking each other's measure across the broken ground.
