He grits his teeth and skids back a bit, and again he hears Orisa cry out. Knowing that she isn't being spared from this enrages him more than he'd been prepared for, and when he lunges back it is with far greater aggressive force. He takes a swipe at Illyria, not aiming to kill - he has no desire for that, especially in a mere dream - but to wound severely. He wants her to know she is not as powerful as she thinks she is.
