Part 5
From the Records of Artahka:
I do not have news yet of Kovorix, but I have made the ebony warblades into frost blades. He always liked the ebony protosteel, and the blades are finer than many of the standard protosteel weapons I have created. They await his return. His vehicle still needs some work, but right now it can reach speeds of 275 kios per hour (234 mph). The vehicle's jets are very energy efficient and it runs off a miniscule amount of Kovorix's elemental power. The jets have double thrust vectoring, giving the craft great agility.
Kovorix looked up at the giant Zyglak Chieftain. Barely avoiding a swipe from the chieftain's huge battle axe, he struck another Zyglak to the ground simultaneously. The weary Toa of ice was jarred when he attempted a to parry another blow from the axe. The chieftain had surprising agility for his size and raw strength that surpassed anything Kovorix had encountered. Kovorix launched a few cordak rockets at the chieftain and slew another of the Zyglak on a backturn. The chieftain took one of the missiles to his shoulder and deflected two with his axe. Kovorix ducked under another swipe from the axe and the axe disintegrated the tree.
"That's motivation" Kovorix said to himself as he struck yet another of the Zyglak trying to get behind him.
Kovorix then used some of his ice power on the giant. It was especially resistant to elements and Kovorix's ice simply melted off. Kovorix moved in and faked an attack on the cheiftain's leg, causing a parry attempt, and then quickly struck the chieftain in the chest, shattering its armor. The chieftain roared and swung his axe powerfully towards Kovorix. The Toa of ice had to block as he had already committed to launching a rocket at the cheiftain's chest. The axe hit the protosteel blades and they sparked as Kovorix was flung backwards into a tree, knocking him unconcious. The chieftain fell, mortally wounded, at Kovorix's feet. The other Zyglak carried both of them off.
