Oh, before we begin—
(Strythos snaps his fingers)
(and between him and Link, black mana appears from the atmosphere and coalesces into a figure)
(this figure is a man with sickly, almost zombie-like skin, but who is covered in armor and a mask seemingly made of lapis lazuli, carrying a greatsword over his shoulder)

(the Eternal raises its gauntlet made of blue stone, blocking Link's strike)
(then, it lunges forward and... grips its sword across the blade
◊, getting up very close and thrusting at Link like its sword is a spear)
...
(the Eternal, rather than put its right hand back on its sword's hilt, instead takes this momentary reprieve to... put its right hand on the blade and hold the sword backwards
◊ what's it even)

Quite a blade you have in your hands.
