After a brief stand-off between you and Barghest, with the woman coming to realize that you had no intention of making the first move, she stepped forwards and began a rapid charge at you, her speed was incredible, but the moment you activated your Dragon Core, you were faster. You dodged out of the way of her first strike, allowed the second to harmlessly slide off of Curtana, the force behind the attack being diminished by the power of the blade. She growled as she spun around and attempted a wide slash, clearly hoping to put her superior range to use and overwhelm you with her size. All you did to avoid that strike was jump upwards, leaping directly over Barghest while using her head as a stepping stone. It didn't actually do all that much outside of make Barghest annoyed and make you look stylish.
