Aleeka takes down the Brythian. The figure used for him is over a half inch taller than a lot of the others with a very deep chest and broad shoulders. But Aleeka cut him down to size. The last three panels all are supposed to represent a single movement. She knocks him off balance, chops the hand, spins, takes off his head and sheaths the sword. Her Norse father wasn't the only one teaching her sword moves. It's based on the samurai of drawing the blade, beheading the enemy with a single cut and sheathing the sword in one smooth movement. The Brythian thought he had a chance.

The last few severed limbs reflect how some of the bodies actually come apart. The guy who got chopped in half comes apart at the waist. This poor bloke does have a separate head. He's actually a Lord of the Rings Eomer figure. His cloak is from a Frodo figure. Aleeka's armor pieces are cut from a larger set of lamellar armor. It really is tied together with ribbon and matches partial sets found in Asia.
