[ Allura is, of course, banking on that their method of swordplay is relatively the same and thus far it seems mostly compatible. Alteans are known for swift and graceful movements more than brute force--or at least that's what they teach in basic sword-fighting. But women? Well, Altean women do tend to be heavy hitters.
Unfortunately, Allura doesn't have any of her usual strength, so she has to rely on what she remembers of her earlier years of training.
Iramaat is already clearly more adept at this. Allura has to take steps back, falling on a parry and a doge. She anticipates her friendly acquaintance will make sure she doesn't get stabbed.
Won't she?
Allura is decidedly better at straight up dodging than blocking with the cane. ]
