The Theran Mystique - Volume 7, Issue 1
Bloody Battles
--------------

1. Knight vs. Legions
Today I was able to observe part of a siege laid by Legions on the Knight Castle. The Legions Deriic and Larorat hurled their bodies onto the Knights' path but were soundly reprimanded by the Knight Aelin. From my period of observation neither were even able to approach the Holy Knight before being turned back. Their lesser ranks may have contributed a great deal to their ineffectiveness. It reminded me a lot of hurling snowballs at the side of a house.

2. Yar vs. Gyrkul
Yar, a half-elf warrior of the 37th rank, fought Gyrkul, a fire berserker of the 32nd in the Seringale arena. The battle started out fair on both sides, until the berserker threw caution to the winds and flew into a rage. Though he was dealing greater damage, his aura soon fell and the story concluded rather swiftly. Yar was taken to near death. Tepesh, another bystander, remarked: "Close one." Close, but not close enough.

3. Farael vs. Yar
I, an avian invoker of the 33rd rank, fought Yar in the arena to the yield. Being a squishy sort of avian, I got, well, squished. I think I hit Yar maybe once with a flame arrow before all my health vanished.

4. Farael vs. Lushen
I fought Lushen today, a drow ninja of the 36th, in the arena. Three battles we had, the first I managed to outdamage him with chain lightning and my falcon unfortunately took the last blow. The second I let mana shield slip without noticing and consequently shocked all my fur on end! before he had the final hit. And during the third he used a shocking weapon for quite a few rounds, which although left me unharmed for the rounds drained my mana greatly so I eventually fell after he realized his error. Oh well. I am learning!

5. Yar vs. Grubl
Yar, at the 40th rank, fought Grubl of something in the thirties in the arena. Yar was hacking away at the big fire giant until he poked Grubl in the wrong place with an icicle and Gruble RAGED, yelling "It's Fire Giant Time!!" (Hmm, Where have I heard that one before?) Yar was tripped up by a hobble and got smashed in the face as his aura fell. Ouch!

6. Xundaghar vs. Tyravel, Arvar
A police report is recorded in which Xundaghar, a drow dark-knight, attacked and killed Tyravel, a human invoker within Seringale's walls. Too bad Arvar was watching. Xundaghar got flagged and apprehended pretty quickly.
