[Luke Castellan has always been on his own as far as he's concerned. Even as a child he had himself to rely on, lived off the land and fought monsters on his own before he was ten years old. This, he thinks, is nothing. This isn't what he was promised. This isn't what he was working for. He's nineteen years old and he's not ready to die just yet. And yet--
--he hears Lara first and he shuffles back so that he doesn't swing at her and instead comes up to Elizabeth's side in their triangle formation.] Lara, stay out of this! This isn't your fight yet. [It's a growl almost, and though he doesn't quite know how to fix this he knows he has to take out the executioner first. That's what makes the most sense. So instead, he's swooping around to swing the blunt end of the axe's blade at Elizabeth's wrist to get her to drop the bat, shifting the weight of the blade in his hand to swing again with the blunt side at her side to knock her off-guard and get her to drop the bat. The trouble is there's nothing blocking Elizabeth's other side. It leaves both of them open to be moved.]
