I slid to the outside of the nearest knife thrust, grabbed the arm, and rotated my body. My target spun around me and smacked headlong into the Quinlan beside him—but without his knife, which I’d appropriated during the maneuver. As the second attacker staggered under the impact, I smacked him on the side of the head. Punching didn’t look like it would be a good idea with the Quinlans—more likely to break their haora without knocking them out. And I didn’t want to do that kind of possibly permanent damage.
