-I will not apologise to a liar and an uncouth man ! He has red hair, the same colour as Judas Iscariot, it proves that he is a traitor and a blackguard !
Some people looked at you and Lady Sue asked.
-Judas who ?
While the wizard answered in a calm tone.
-Heh, then you will burn...
Seeing this the Baron made great gestures with his hands in a very theatrical manner and told you and your opponent.
-Well, well, well, if you want to duel so much I will not forbid you. But tomorrow, before the ceremony, for this night eat, drink, and rejoice ! Live well and enjoy your night. You will need rest. Seat please and show some restraint. And servants, bring us some hippocras ! And something to eat !
You were happy to see that you were seated between Lady Takable and the heir of Lord Neutral. You saluted both of them and the lady looked at you saying.
-My lord... You are very brave but you shouldn't have done this, you... You risk being killed by this man. I thank you for your bravery of having defended me but this sorcerer can throw fire from his hands.
You try to reassure her and say.
-Do not worry my lady, a sorcerer who has access to fire will only make the battle easier. And even if I must die I would have done it to protect a lady in need.
She blushed and thanked you, you smiled to her but inside you you were worried, if truly this man could use fire will he be so dishonourable to use it ? Probably, since he is a wizard and even a pagan wizard ! You will have to dodge him and kill him with a glorious blow of your axe. You thought about it while eating some poultry as an appetiser and looking at the skull of the dragon that hang from the wall. If brave men like Saint Georges managed to kill fire breathing dragons you never doubted that you will manage to kill this magician. One thing was sure in this world, dirty tricks and subtlety were the tactics of weak men who lost their time reading books about the exploits of others instead of covering themselves in glory with their sword. Yes, you were a knight, you lived by the sword, and if you will die it will be by the sword and not because of some mage who played with fire. Yes, you will have a warrior's death, or die of dysentery in an encampment. The young knight at your left coughed a bit to put you out of our daydreaming. Swede Neutral said.
-Your lordship, You.... You were very brave, and if I may tell you so, Lord Hostil is a very poor swordsman, if you manage to get close to him he will be killed. But you will need to dodge his fire. Good luck... I...
-Do not worry young knight, I fought English and Gascons knights before, they were real warriors, a magic tricks maker has no chances against me.
