on second thought

Ok, everyone..get ready to be in complete discust with me. After much deliberation I came to a conclusion. A question of honor? I'll burn in hell for this, but I am going to push my challenge forth untill it's end. Why? Here's why. I think it is high time RhyDin got a new Overlord. Now I may not be the best for the job, but I have a damn good chance to at least get him out. *If* I get the crown..bring on the challenges.
What about my word of honor as to the duel betwen me and Jeff? Well, lets break this down. First, because *I* wished to live by the rules in which we are bound, Baron Oaknshield began to insult me. Dalamar had a comitment to the crown that no matter what, he is to show up to defend his crown. In which he did not. A rule was broken, time to pay the penalty. For those of you who know me, it should be obvious I threw the duel with baron Oakenshield.
Why? Well, that's simple to. I try to be mild tempered..even though it is rarely seen. Anyway, I threw the duel to just put an end to this. I am tired of alot of things around here. I'll be damned if I will just stand by and do nothing anymore. I am in position to make a change for the better...even though others would disagree.
Call me what you will, I expect nothing less. This may not be the best way to get the job done, but it's the path I've laid, and I will ride it untill the end. I am not seeking support, respect, or friends. that is something long since gone for me around here. Dueling is no longer even fun for me. The political positions here are now so stressful, I question why I even challenged in the first place...and the answer is that maybe others will be
motivated to make a difference and clean this rat trap up some.
As I said, hate me if you will. I am not trying to be the bad guy here, it just seems to be happening that way.

::::reads Huma's post and his pale face reddens with anger. His eyes narrow and hand trembling he scrawls:::
Dishonorable knave. It was you who suggested the duel with Baron Oakenshield. It was you who suggested the wager. It is a slap in the face to the honor of this place and to the honor of Baron Oakenshield that you would so vilely claim to have thrown the duel. Does that make your decision not to honor your agreement more palatable? I think not. In fact, it seems even more disgusting and abhorrent. And to think you thought yourself fit to be overlord
of this place.
:::furiously, he scribbles his name at the bottom:::
Sincerely,

::Writes::
Huma,
Next time, before making such a wager, consider the consequences, and if you are willing to live by them. That way, your own honor wouldn't be compromised. There's nothing I can say that will change your mind, but I have my own mind and opinions, now.
Before you backed down on your word, I found your intentions and then later rescinding your challenge as honorable, because although you let anger get to your head (as we all do), and dueled against a consequence you couldn't handle, you accepted it. That's what earned respect from me.
I can't say the same thing about you now, not after you backed out on your word. I am stating this as mildly as possible, without starting some mudslinging. I am sure you understand my point.
Simply,

Huma,
I once called you friend but it seems I never shall again. There are far better ways to acheive your goals than this. It saddens me that I've had to say this.

Huma,
For the record, as you appear to believe that public opion of you was low before this, I would like to say that you gained a tremendous amount of respect in my eyes last night. Standing up to the insult as you did and holding true to the terms. It has been a long time since DoS has seen such a duel of honor as between yourself and Jeffery and I found it a breath of fresh air.
It is with great sadness that I now read of your desire to go against your word. That breath of fresh air has turned noxious.

Dragonbane,
As everyone has already damned your name and wished you nothing but pain, I will attempt to keep this short. I will not damn you, here... I will give you the benefit of the doubt and consider this your way of making right a wrong you committed by engaging in this duel of honor, laying the validity of the "Rules of the Arena" on the line simply to hold to a promise. I do believe the Overlord should stand before the Council as a few barons have
before... as sad as his absence was, he will have to face the consequences for it. In a way, I am saying I agree with the premise of your decision... or rather, I understand, perhaps, why you made it.
However... I do not condone it. Should I ever attain a barony under your possible Overlordship... do not expect me to stand Loyal given the circumstances.
Cheers,
Cristian de Oro

Jesse's Notes Volume 2: A Summary of Huma's post "on second thought."
Ok, everyone.. I'm Huma and I'm a pathetic, low-life, honorless, cowardly, backstabber. I'm lying about throwing the match to Jeff, because I'm a horrible dueler and it makes me feel like I'm less than a real man. I'm being the bad guy here, but I don't want you all to think I am.. really, it's just an accident. Somebody is making me do all these horrible, degenerate things. I'm possessed.
Have a nice day, loser. Watch your back.

"He was right, a hornets nest indeed."
::tacks up her own bit::
I am confused. Please, no one take offense, or think I am taking sides. I'm asking for clarity.
Huma challenged Dal, This much I got. Here's where it gets fuzzy.
Now, did Dal not show up for the match? And if he didn't, what happens?
Since I was not there, I cannot in good conscience say anything on the matter, other than it'll work itself out, with my opinion, or without.
