Fight.

[Typhon]

I watch as you unveil the large needle laden weapon from your back.

What the Hell is that thing? Did you just call it by a name? And did it respond?

Given the size of the sword I realize normal attacks and defenses are going to be ineffective , especially with the conditions of my right arm. Though the size of the sword also leaves you open in the case of a missed attack. As you near me and begin your attack, your movements become even more obvious than usual due to the weight of the Takamagahara. I'm easily able to read the incoming horizontal slash aimed at my side and as its coming I leap in the air while twisting my body and jab the tip of my sword into the body of Takamagahara, placing the tip between a few of the needles at an angle slightly behind me. This forces its momentum downward so you end up crashing the tip of the sword into the ground, possibly getting it stuck for a moment. I also use the movement of me pushing the tip of my sword into Takamagahara at an angle to push myself closer to you in mid air. Using this to close our distance, while also throwing you off balance, I come down with a vertical slash just behind your extended arm's elbow, cleaving through the arm and severing it.

*as you twist in the air, completely open, Takamagahara being a living sword, releases multiple of its needles (60 damage), which pierce your body, damaging you, while at the same time, bending itself to the side so that your sword misses and hits the ground. After avoiding your sword, Takamagahara proceeds by bending back, hitting you with great force, pushing you away and also stabbing multiple needles on your body.*

Basically, Takamagahara performs a zig-zag motion, avoiding your sword and hitting you, while releasing multiple of its needles.
