Olen was about to go to ask Elena to help out when they were attacked by a group of Falcons.
So he had to stop from getting away from the group.
One of the falcons came directly from the front of Olen.
It was baring its talon aiming at Olen's face.
The bird almost made a ninety-degree dive to catch Olen who was about to get out of the circle.
It was very fast and Olen was very surprised. He still didn't have enough experience. He swung his sword a bit too early. The falcon retracted its talon and let the sword swing by. That in turn made Olen go off balance. Seeing the opportunity, the hunting bird again dived to grab Olen.
Seeing no option Olen just let himself drop to the ground while pointing his sword upward. However, this type of positioned pointing was very inaccurate. The falcon didn't get scared looking at the sword pointing at it. It attacked Olen after easily avoiding the sword.
