The Swordsman's sword cut towards the Yeti's elbow in a fast strike.
The Yeti bent its arm and formed another layer of ice over the fur, catching the flat side of the blade before driving its other hand forward. The Great Swordsman twisted away from the centre of the strike, though the Yeti's fingers still scraped across its armour.
Rather than retreat, the undead stepped closer. It turned the sword within its grip and pulled the blade along the Yeti's raised arm, peeling away the frozen coating in a spray of white fragments, just before the Yeti came in and closed its hand around the Swordsman's forearm.
Dustin leaned forward when he saw it, but the undead immediately turned its wrist and forced the sword between the Yeti's fingers before its grip could settle. The beast released the arm and drove its knee into the Great Swordsman's side.
The impact lifted the undead off the floor and sent it several paces away.
