From Xyclone

::makes certain his hired scribe makes his words legible so that all can read this::

To the esteemed Duel of Swords Coordinator, Lady Helix, the honorable Standings Keeper, Lord Golden, the exceptional Overlord, Dalamar Ar' Daumon, the noble keepers of the baron rings, and the whole of the Duel of swords Community

On this date , the eleventh day of the second month in the year nineteen-hundred and ninety-eight....

I, Warlord Xyclone to proclaim the right of challenge to the sole Renegade Baron Huma Dragonbane, keeper of the Fourth ring.

I do this not out of a sign of disrespect to Baron Huma, rather out of a strong desire to return the fourth ring to a loyal status and thus forge a united circle of loyalty that the rest of the Duel of Swords community can look upon as one without strife or division among the council...

Below lies a list of accumlated Peer Wins since my last and only challenge...If none of these are found to be valid for any reason...I have more an shall make them public at that time...

The week of 13 July 97
Drakewyn Alabaster 6-4.5 in 11 rounds as called by RDI Knight
Jeffrey Oakenshield 5-4 in 12 rounds as called by RDI Knight

The week of 18 July 97
Nova Grey Shadow 5.5-3 in 12 rounds as called by RDI Alais

The week of 20 July 97
Topaz Eludes 5-2 in 8 rounds as called by RDI Mimi
Kayne Rune 5-3.5 in 11 rounds as called by RDI Daemon
Huma Dragonbane 5-2 in 9 rounds as called by RDI Ranger

The week of 1 Aug 97
Valmion 5-3 in 9 rounds as called by RDI Alais
Steve Glowacki 6.5-5.5 in 15 rounds as called by RDI Luth
Lupton 5-1 in 6 rounds as called by RDI Luth

Skyler J. Chamberland 5-3in 9 rounds as called by RDI Alais
Phil Kardinal 5-2 in 6 rounds as called by RDI Girvin

As I said...these should be enough...but if any are lacking I will provide adequate substitutes.....

Baron Huma Dragonbane...keeper of the fourth ring, I shall await your response within the alloted time as the former wins are verified, and I leave the decision as to a caller, time and place in your judgement...

Until next we meet,
Respectfully....
Xyclone
Warlord of the Duel of Swords

Huma,

Here in the Duel of Swords, you were one of, if not the, first person to see something in a young dueler. You took me under your wing and helped me rise through the ranks. Now, I consider you to be one of my closest friends. No matter how I feel about Dal, as I do consider him a friend as well, and no matter how you feel about Dal, as I also know you don't care for him, good luck to you in this Challenge and good luck in fighting for your beliefs.

Xyclone,

I hope you fight the match with skill and honor.

A Buffy point to ponder:

Xy, I love ya, y'know that. But a vampire as a Baron? I dunno if I can handle that. To stake, or not to stake, that is the question...
