Strike her down

You've already nailed her in the face once, and she couldn't touch you earlier, so you attack the witch with strikes.

You feigh a jab and then throw a swift punch straight at her stomach to knock her wind out.

However your opponent proves to be surprisingly agile.

She blocks your punch by jabbing her extended fingers to the inside of your biceps, causing a jolt of pain to shoot through your arm.

In a fluid motion she then connects a palm strike to your chin, forcing your head back.

However instead of pulling her hand back she wraps it around your chin, swiftly stepping behind you and then wrapping her arm around your neck in a tight chokehold.

The movements had been applied so fast that you had been barely able to register them.

"You thought I was just about magic. However I trained close combat as well my dear Brent." The Witch says mockingly as her chokehold is blocking the bloodflow to your brain.

Because your head is pulled backwards you look straight up at the richly decorated ceiling of the throne room.

A blur appears in front of your eyes and you realize you only have a few more seconds before you will pass out.
