The second blow to his head effectively dazed Caim. Already seeing spots because of the lack of air, now he could barely see straight at all - and yet still he struggled to roll onto his stomach, to get to his hands and knees and manage to get upright to fight back again.

No matter how badly you are injured, get up. No matter how much it hurts, stand and fight. If you cannot stand, stand anyway. If your legs are gone, drag yourself. Always fight - never fall.

It was hard to push himself up because of the pain in his hands - one of them wouldn't even open properly. Damn it, what had happened to him?!
