[ Gaunt sweeps his own blade down in a heavy parry, looking to force Ashura's sweeping cut back, trying to push his blade out of alignment for a follow-up blow of some kind. Gaunt is very strong, well, for a human. And for a 50 something warrior, he's very, very quick, his movements the efficient ones of who has spent at least 40 of those 50 years working his combat technique to a fine edge. ]
