Grinlague says 'Given the veil and such, without your natural blades you are, as I thought,
a mere mortal.'

Boggdok says 'But against a fully warded mage...'

Grinlague says 'With your natural blades, it is rather absurd.'

You say to Grinlague 'But you also managed to get one out of my hands.'

Boggdok says to Grinlague 'Ya migh' want to try usin' a potion.'

Boggdok says to Grinlague 'I don' know o'any nexun but Iklahn that's dangerous without
them.'

You make a poncho from the corpse of Grinlague!

Grinlague says to Boggdok 'We'll see when I grow.'

You say to a poncho from the carcass of Grinlague 'A little small.'

Boggdok grins evilly at Grinlague.
You wear a poncho from the carcass of Grinlague about your body.

Grinlague says to Boggdok 'Jorac was rather handily disposed of.'

You say 'But a worthy trophy.'

Grinlague says to Boggdok 'You were rather quiet whent hat happened.'
Seeing the humorous events before him, Ubudhizh chortles loudly.

Boggdok says to Grinlague 'If ya think Aulrathdien is bad news. Ya ain' ever met me in
battle yet.'

Boggdok laughs heartily.

Grinlague says to Boggdok 'I'd bet on Aulrathdien against you in the Arena.'

Boggdok laughs heartily.

Boggdok says 'Wouldn' even be a fight.'

You sigh.

*** Frankly, I'm not interested in fighting Boggdok, but hero or not I can't back down when he talks to me that way. ***

Grinlague shrugs indifferently.

Ubudhizh looks tougher.

You say 'Now I must know.'

Grinlague says 'I can't last two rounds against him with the natural blades.'

Boggdok chuckles at your joke.

Ubudhizh says to you 'Wait until you are done with your learning.'

Boggdok says to you 'Alrigh' kid. Let's go.'

Grinlague says 'I lasted over twenty with them.'

Ubudhizh says 'Then it will be a true test.'

*** So we head to the Arena together, 

You tell Grinlague 'I think it is Taisangu's curse that really makes the difference, to be honest.'

Grinlague tells you 'Your ripostes.'

You tell Grinlague 'Cease when I don't have a sword in my hand.'

Grinlague tells you 'It took me over six rounds to disarm you.'

You tell Grinlague 'As I did not for the majority of our last duel.'

Grinlague tells you 'I wouldn't last that long to begin with with your natural blades.'

*** Right about here I kind of want to scream, "It's just not that good!  It accounts for less damage than the poncho I wasn't wearing!"  But I can't say that.  ***

Grinlague tells you 'Not to mention I took your blows just fine, comparatively.'

Boggdok yells 'You goin' take all day?'

*** Because I get hung up fighting guards the whole way. ***

Grinlague tells you 'You may think as you wish, but it is rather obvious to me that that is the deciding factor.'

*** I get as far as Galadon but Team Hero Battle spots hero Tribunal mages: ***

Ubudhizh says 'we have tribunal mages to kill'

Boggdok says 'Tha' is true.'

Ubudhizh says 'can we please, stop, killing, pure guards??'

Ubudhizh sighs.

Boggdok says 'Alrigh'... we do that.'

Boggdok says 'We kill them mages.'

*** So they're off to do that and the duel never actually happens. ***

Grinlague tells you 'You do not duel him?'

You tell Grinlague 'Something mor pressing.'

*** Meanwhile, I spot Jalestym in Galadon, raid the shifter guild, and unsuccessfully try to bash him down in shikra form. ***

 Aulrathdien: My mage's flown off.

*** Time passes... Iklahn tries to get the Key back, Battle goes up against Jack Blaguar, etc. ***
*** I mow through so many goddamn Eastern Road guards I actually perfect the aim skill. ***
*** I go back to Ugruk XP for a while.  Ivar comes looking for me.   ***

Approaching a Bridge Over Voralia's
Tears 
  Constructed of great slabs of closely fitted stone, a wide and well-
traveled road runs to the east and west here.  An arching bridge
constructed from massive blocks of stone rises to the east, allowing
passage over the mighty Voralia's Tears.  Just to the north of the road,
a small grain mill rests in the middle of a dusty and well trampled
clearing, hard against the bank of the river.  Cultivated fields and
pastures spread out in all directions to the limit of the horizon,
dotted here and there with herds of grazing animals.

Ivar has summoned you!
A Farmer's Market 
  In a dusty clearing carved out of the stunted trees of the dwarf forest,
a small market for the local farmers has sprung to life.  Relying on the
near-constant flow of travelers between the surrounding cities, a farmer
could most likely make a pretty good living here, assuming they can
survive near constant assaults by bloodthirsty adventurers.  Several
carts and wagons filled with local produce lie scattered about the
clearing in no particular order, various hand-made signs posted on them
proclaiming loudly that each vendor has the freshest food of them all.
 

Ivar the duergar is here.
Arms folded across his chest, a heavily muscled man gazes at you
dispassionately.
A tall, thin farmer glares at you with thinly veiled contempt.
Leaning against the back of his wagon, a balding farmer eyes you warily.
