Kalenel quickly shifted his body around to face his mentor, having no anger at his failed attack. He was here to learn the ways of combat, and anger and pride would only get in the way of his training. Lifting his blades back to the ready position, Kalenel listened intently to Faust's words.
Nodding his head as Faust showed him the correct stance, Kalenel mirrored his position as closely as he could manage. If balance was as important as his mentor had said, then Kalenel would need to make sure to have a solid one. After looking down to check the position of his right foot, the once rogue looked up towards his teacher to begin again....
Swords came up quickly as Kalenel attempted to parry the sudden onslaught, stepping back on his right leg to position himself better. Kalenel's ambidextrousness was no small factor as he performed his parry. Moving his blades one over the other, Kalenel's right sword leapen up to defend his left shoulder. His left sword angled to the right to defend Kalenel's hip.
If his parry was successful, then Kalenel would attempt two quick slashes while he stayed anchored in his stance. After each slash, he would return the blades back at the ready.
