Quoted By:
The blow pierced right through your chest, pointed enough to penetrate your demigod hide. The blow itself is not that harmful all things considered, but it is shocking since you're not used to feeling pain or suffering harm. An instinctive reaction of shock, soon to be replaced by anger, as you grab the lance at his end. Clearly experienced in combat, he quickly lets go and rides away from you.
<span class="mu-b">"You drew blood..."</span> you say as you feel and look at the flowing red from your chest, <span class="mu-b">"...few can make such a claim, of me. Well done!"</span>
You are impressed for sure, but terribly angered as you don't hesitate to charge for the armored warrior. Though he has many weapons at his disposal and skilled at all of them, there isn't much he can do when a monster of your size bears down on him. He even makes a strike for you before attempting to ride away, but you grab him from his horse... and though he seems to have been fastened to the saddle, you simply rip the whole thing off with him one swift and strong motion, the horse continuing to ride off.
<span class="mu-s">"Jataj guide my hand, lead my- haurgh!"</span> now up close you can hear him uttering battle prayers, about to attack from within your grip, but you stop him short by chomping right into him with your ferocious fanged maw. Not a strong enough bite to chew right through him (though you could), but enough to crush him within his armor for broken bones and reduce his ability to fight.
<span class="mu-s">"Damned kirsh! Stop there, or your man dies!"</span>
<span class="mu-b">"-hrrrmmm?"</span> you mutter, turning to face Faysal with his comrade-in-arms still held in your mouth. Some honorable, noble warrior he is, if he's gone and grabbed Emil and taken him hostage. Though, to be fair it was done for the sake of his own friend. He has no immediate way of stopping you from biting the armored warrior in half or otherwise just turning him to bloody mulch in your mighty hands, so maybe he thinks that Emil's life will save the life of his friend.
Of course, you care little to nothing about Emil, but wonder what you might make of this situation.
>Ha! Kill him, it would be doing you a favor. Whether you kill this man you've got though, is up to you.
>Play along, see what you might be able to string out of this exchange...
>Don't let the combat be sullied, set the man aside for Faysal to do the same, and fight one on one as it should be.
