My thanks to House Questrion for the dueling. I truely had a most enjoyable time. House Questrion dispayed a great amount of skill, and each and every duel was a good one.
My thankls to everyone once again . . . I can't wait for the rematch.

Yes indeed, a hearty appreciation to Questrion for their fine challenge.
It was nice to be away from the pressure and stress the offical duels can bring with politics and such, and just have some good old fashioned dueling with a bit of a competetive edge. No worries or stress about personal careers or anything, but rather just friendly rivalries and team spirits.
We as well look forward to a rematch with Questrion, and even more on going matches with them in the future. As well any other House, dojo, or group who would like to put together a team and duel us, challenge any time. It's a fun thing to do I think, and shows how duelers who are of a House can be a positive team, and it be fun for all.

Congratulations to House Lathadoscia on the sound drubbing they gave us last evening ::chuckles:: I'd like to offer my personal thanks as well for the respect paid to me in the ring, regardless of the large disparity between the ranks of myself and my opponent. It was a pleasure to face House L, and to echo the others, I can't wait for the rematch.

::after reading the several posts, smiling and chuckling, he tacks up one of his own::
Well, long ago before I came to Rhydin, I would pay my generals and any others that wished to try to duel with me in swords. The skills of those here in Rhydin greatly outmatch those of that time long past, but I do believe I have also improved.
I suppose that what I am trying to say here is that, hopefully without sounding to boastful, I give you my team.
Member: Myself.
Of course, I realize that this will not last, as I will get too tired and pummeled to compete often against five other duelists. For this reason, I will in the mean time look for a few friends to bail me out.
Until I get them though... consider Rand open for a beating.

Lady Ellisa Morgan,
House Lathadoscia would be delighted to match skill and talent against some of the sport's finest women to wield the blade. It would ne nice for a friendly bit of competition and fun away from the stress, pressures, and politics of the offical duels. I am sure that the rest of my House would be just as delighted to enter the ring with sove of RhyDin's loveliest, if not most dangerous, women. I would love to host you as our guests, and would like to be the Home team for this contest. Please
get in contact with me as soon as possible, Baroness.

Hell, Rand... count me in on the bail-out bracket. I've got your back. We'll be the House of No Houses.
Only people with absolutely no allegiance to any House need apply.

Walker,
Valmion's post with the results must have fallen off the boards or something. ::chuckles:: The final result was that Houst Lathadoscia soundly beat us 25 to 16. We're looking to improve our side of that score greatly in a rematch sometime ::grins::
