Saevitia points her hand in Zethanon's direction, 'That'll be you taking the first strike.'.

Anselmaus slides his blade free, the tang of steel singing as he pulls it free and lifts it in a high guard. He steps side to side on the field and settles back, right heel back in his stance. He turns his blade sidelong and holds it, both hands, against his chest. Its fuller lifts, just clear of his lowered visor, 'Do your worst, it will not be enough, Zethanon.'.
Anselmaus gets a wickedly sharp silversteel warsword with a swept hilt from an imbricated silversteel scabbard hung from a wide swordbelt.
