In the three days since learning these techniques, Cassian had dedicated every waking moment to mastering the sword forms. Each was a carefully crafted sequence of movements, designed to mimic the wind's many facets - the way it could scatter dry leaves in playful spirals one moment, then gather into hammering gales the next. While true mastery would take months, he'd achieved a working proficiency with several forms.
One such technique was Gale Strike.
Cassian saw his opening. With a sharp thrust, he channeled swirling wind energy along his blade's edge until the air itself seemed to vibrate around the steel. The moment his massive opponent overextended on a hammer swing, Cassian released the built-up energy in a concussive blast aimed squarely at the brute's midsection.
