The Amendment - Eliza Harenwood x Han So-Wol
Despite being the only family member to step into the field of combat, the family motto still rings true with Eliza. And that applies with training and sparring. Wherever inside a dojo, or a hotel having to fend off her ex's minions, each encounter allows the opportunity to grow and hone her skills even further. Eliza, however, will always prefer the former than the latter, and having gone through most competitors in Japan, she sets her eyes towards Korea. Specifically, Seoul.
Han So-Wol was someone that Eliza could relate to. Came from a prestigious family, seeks to push herself with every battle, unparalleled skill with her integrated form of karate and jiu-jitsu, this lady was a fitting partner to bring out their best in the Brit. And the Korean also.
The action during the spar thoroughly met both of their expectations and then some. Eliza found out first hand why So-Wol is positioned as a Vice-Chairman, and the Korean is impressed that the Brit could keep up. Flesh and leather resounded in a cacophony of smacks and thuds. Sweat pouring out of every pore. Those two were aggressive, intentional, graceful and passionate, with the rustle of their attire denoting the power and technique in their attacks. As expected, Eliza found it difficult to get over So-Wol. Any strengths one has can easily be overcome by the other. Eliza's elegant evasion was only thanks to her dance background, which does help to thwart any attempts to get too close; So-Wol was just as hard to maintain any forward aggression.
It was a game of inches, where this spar can change dramatically, only determined by the narrowest of margins. Eliza stepped forward, feet smacking the tatami, palm chambered and ready to strike. So-Wol was fast in reacting, even after such a spirited spar so far, quickly fired a straight punch that would deliver a decisive blow.
The white leather glove would only touch nothing but the air itself, as it sailed past Eliza's head. Instead, So-Wol found a foot connecting the side of her head. A maneuver that Eliza rarely nails, as it is something that demanded flexibility, agility and most of all, timing. The two stepped back, So-Wol went down on one knee while Eliza remained standing. Her guard lowered, chest rising and falling deeply as she would offer to assist So-Wol up to her feet. Letting the Korean get her bearings before they will go at it again.

Another banger by Ohxs and at this point, there really isn't anything he can't do! Really thankful for the way he makes such great art and for putting up with my ideas!
This one was fun, as it's actually with someone whose OC's I have seen more than a few times. It was interesting how I first reached out to them, as it was an artist that brought us two together. So expect to see more from them and my OC's in the future!
