[Battle report - Triffilina] Quite honestly, I have been travelling a lot with squires, because they seem to be absolutely everywhere these days - you simply can't go a day without bumping into one. Well, shortly after a whirlwind hunting trip one of the ones in my group, Patters, said that General Emilise requested him to duel a Slith warrior named Ikuno in the arena, so off he went. Adroredus, the other squire with me, and I followed to watch. When we got there, Patters was running around looking for potions, so yet a third squire by the name of Rhorel materialized to challenge Ikuno. Before Rhorel could have a swing at the slith - What did he do to the Knights anyway, i wonder ? - Patters wass back. Adroredus snickered at him for wearing a few pieces of sub-issu armor but the little halfling thief was unperturbed and entered the arena anyway. They stepped into the arean, swords whipped out, purple potions were flung down their throats, and they lept at each other. Patters kep flinging dirt at his opponent, who hacked away through the grime with ease and employed some warrior tricks to defeat his opponent rather quickly. AS Patters lay oblivious and bleeding on the arena floor, Ikuno called to us watching in the audience to see who would stay his murderous blade. To my surprise, although both Executor Kavere and his General Emilise were prsidiing, as well as squires Rhorel and Adroredus, there were no pleas for mercy. Only a rather screechy-voiced young dark-knight screamed for blood. I suppose Knights are not as merciful and compassionate as i thought. As soon as the victorious Ikuno stepped out of the Arena, Rhorel stepped up to battle. After watiing an interminable period for the blood to fade from his hands, Ikuno entered again. The second squire fell almost as quickly as the first after some running skirmishes, due to an unluckily fallen aura. This squire was quickly dispatched with no discussion with the audience. After Rhorel fell, Patters clamored for a second chance. Ikuno accepted, joking to the crowd, "Let's see how long i can last." By this point lots of bets had been put on the slith over the squires. Ikuno sat down to wait for the blood to flake off again, when Patters suddenly announced, "Whant are we waiting for ?" and whacked him over the head with a sock full of pebbles. Ikuno went out like a light, After stealing a couple of items which he dropped (and vulturing watchers snatched away), Patters fumbled and woke up his target, who dashed out to quaff a potion and then promptly beat him to a pulp yet again. All in all it was rather a disappointing show from the squire, especially since the fellow they were fighting hadn't much of a chance to rest between battles.
