::Shaking his head in disbelief, as technically, AJ has defended a baronial ring eleven times in a row; nine on his own ring, and two on this one::

AJ,
You have once again shown us why you deserve to bear the second baronial ring. Well defended.

Tom,
It was a well fought duel. If you strive to achieve something, keep trying, no matter what obstacles come upon you. What you seek, you will eventually recieve.

G,
As stated above, for Tom, it was a well fought duel. You have earned the rank as baron before, and I have no doubt that you will attain the title again. Good luck in your future endeavors.

Respectfully,
Var Medici-Giovanni

::shakes his head, noting Var seemed to have forgot AJ wasn't defending his own ring. Shrugs and wanders off::

::posts his sign with confusion::

So what happens to the ring now? Does Ajay get it or does it stay vacant until the next Warlord's Tournament?

::Grinning as she writes.::

Oh, I don't know... might be neat seeing AJay walking around with -two- Baronial rings.

No offence intended of course. After all, I was G's second... even if I told him I was bad luck.

Smiling merrily, her bonnet slipping off her head, the ribbons staying it, as it slides down her glossy dark curls...she stops and picks up a handful of crayons...unable to resist::


WELL DUELED, ASIZE=6>J

I don't care who did what, AJ and G dueled well, as for myself, I started dueling chicken like. I probably coulda done better, but this is me, pressure is bad :D
