Fall - Pillars

A plan that had to be put on pause when one of his pillars flew through the air like a javelin, missing him by inches.

He clambered to cover, looking around for the culprit. It hadn't been Baiken, which meant… holy crap.

A couple dozen yards away, Fall and Edelgard had moved into the forest of pillars Ed had created, and had taken to demolishing them in the midst of their heavyweight struggle. Fall's eyes glowed like lanterns as she gripped a pillar like… well, like a baseball bat, swinging it to boost her reach against Edelgard's heavy axe. Their fighting left deep gouges and craters in the earth, and as Fall grew more vicious, Edelgard remained patient and looked for an opening.

Soon, she saw one. Fall swung the tree-trunk-sized pillar sideways, trying to bash her guard into pieces, but Edelgard anticipated the swing and met it with her axe from an opposing angle. The pillar turned to powder on hit, kicking up rubble and dust in a thick cloud. She couldn't see Fall, but knew the brute would surely go grab another pillar. A strategy she'd already seen through.
