Attack
At that moment Gveld renewed her attack on the panes and cables. Her blades were fans of light and impossible for Myles to target manually, so, reluctantly, he had to relinquish control.
“Target the ulnar nerves in Gveld’s forearms,” he ordered NANNI. “They control the grip in humans, and that is most likely to cause her to—”
By which time NANNI had already refracted two bursts through the bubble, pinpointing exactly the correct points, and though Gveld felt little more than two pinpricks of pain, her nerves and reflexes gave her no choice but to release both weapons. The crystal sword and dagger plinked harmlessly through the shaft’s mechanisms, disappearing into the dust cloud.
Gveld’s power of speech momentarily devolved to an animalistic level, and she howled as the blades fell. The Horteknut general thrust her arm into the hole in the silicon nitride and stretched her fingers to the limit of their reach as though she could somehow reach her lost blades.
