Mara moves, but it's minutely, to better position herself in her avatar's sights. Her mind is strong from years of training, and it's easy to move the avatar around to do as she wishes. Mara smiles when she sees Ilde ignoring her avatar's face; Ilde has clearly learned and remembered that the face is a silly target for a fight.

It makes the enemy angry, makes bruises and broken noses, but it doesn't get the enemy down. The stomach is what you aim for, to knock the wind out of an opponent, to get them down and keep them there. The strike to the face is a followup, Mara assumes, to add insult to injury.

To reward Ilde, Mara has her avatar take the blow, and a penalty is docked from Mara's score. But Mara wants to give Ilde something more than easy wins; Mara pivots and her avatar grabs at Ilde's arm as the blow lands, grabbing at her and pulling her down.
