How does 'bladestorm' work? - Man in Blue Suit Jacket Reading Book

One of the ranger's abilities is Bladestorm. The description is:

Free sword attacks on enemies that enter or attack from melee range

I have some questions about the mechanics:

  • If my character is the one moving, do they still get a free sword attack? Or only when the enemy moves?
  • If an enemy enters melee range and then attacks, do I get two free sword attacks?
  • Do these free sword attacks happen immediately on the enemy's turn? Or do I need to wait until the next turn to the use them? If I have to use them manually, do they stack?
