Honor Duel
A circle had been cleared out of the snow, and guards stood around it, prohibiting the crowd from entering Tidelan stood with the guards. If one of the duelists fell, he was authorized to step in and heal them. The guards made way as Smith walked between the duelists. He said, loud enough for the crowd to hear, "I, Erret Smith, stand witness to this duel. In my capacity of governor and protector of Smith's Gambit. I vow to ensure that this duel proceeds according to the agreed upon terms, and than any who violate them, or interfere in the outcome, shall find no peace within our walls. The duelists agreed leather armor, axes and shields. Lukas, if you have no axe or shield, they will be provided you from the armory of the town guard." Three guards came forward, one offering a wooden shield, one offering a battle-axe, and one offering a handaxe. "Attacking with any other weapon-- including fang, claw, hoof, or other animal appendage-- will constitute a breach of the terms of the duel." He walked out of the circle, and said, "When ready, fight with honor."
