Along the Eastern Road 
  Constructed of great slabs of stone, a wide road descends through
overgrown fields of tall grass in a gradual slope towards a broad river
valley to the east.  The road continues towards the towering walls and
battlements of Galadon that rise to the west, crowning the top of the
highest elevation for miles around.  Cultivated fields, dotted here and
there with small herds of animals, grazing the lush grass for sustenance,
stretch out to the limit of the horizon in all directions save west.

[BATTLE] Ubudhizh: A fine victory

Before a Fortified Hillock 
  A large mound of earth has been pushed up here, forming a strategically
planned barrier to the village just beyond. Behind the earthen barricade
stand the gates -- heavy, massive, fortified iron gates that glow eerily
in the reflected torch-light -- and beyond them in the darkness you can
just make out the faces of the village huts. The village, like the gate,
is dark and forbidding from this distance, softened not at all by the
occasionally glimpsed lantern or fire. A chill breeze blows from the gates
to the west, bringing with it the gruff sound of barbaric voices and an
occasional burst of raucous, drunken laughter.

*** Well, what the hell.  You clearly still want to fight.  Eventually this happens:  ***

At the Altar 
  You stand before an impressive gold altar.  The tallest candelabra are so
tall they hardly cast any light down on the main part of the altar; they
only serve to highlight the highest reaches of the altar.  Fortunately, there
are more candelabra lower down, which, along with the light coming through
the stained glass window, provide enough light to see the full magnificence
of this altar.  You can exit the temple to the east, the temple continues
to the north and small rooms open to the south and west.  A small staircase
descends towards the Academy's entrance.

You tell Grinlague 'True.'

You tell Grinlague 'I think I could replace Taisangu if I had to, but I won't know until I

You tell Grinlague 'I didn't always have one, or even the training to use one.'

[BATTLE] Aulrathdien: It is clear to me that Grinlague believes he should be my better, and
it is very frustrating to him that he isn't.

Grinlague tells you 'And I am quite certain you were much easily dealt with before either
of those things.'

Grinlague tells you 'Though, I merely speculate.'

You tell Grinlague 'I feel I could not refute you without seeming to brag.'

Grinlague tells you 'Our duel gave me the evidence I sought.'
