::Reads the post by Perri, then thinks back, saying aloud::
If I'm not mistaken, Adonai or Dem said they'd take the ring back. Is that what Krollon meant? ::Shrugs:: Probably.

Perri,
I believe Krollon was under the impression Adonai or Dem was planning on challenging you. That's how I see it, at least. Maybe I'm wrong. I'm just stating what I understood from what I read.
Respectfully,

Var,
Perhaps so, but I personally wouldn't consider the prospective challenges of two who aren't currently in a position to challenge as reason not to.. after all, look at the peoples scrambling over each other to take a shot at Zen.
Ah well.
-Perri!
Has got to be on someone's "Good Baron" list, somewhere.

Perri,
Guess that just shows how little you know of me. Adonai and Dem are both sword-brothers of mine. If they want first crack at ya, they can have ya.
Simply,

Well Perri...
I know at least one person who's list has only you on it as the "bestest" Baron...
::She picks up her daughter and helps her write, using a pretty green crayon.::
Delilah says daddy is bestest Baron.

General Perrinis,
Prithee....adjust thy state of perpetual denial and harken thine ears unto me.
Thou hast perpetuated in thine belief that mineself nor Lord Cyrax canst challenge thee. And foreasmuch as thou sayest this.....I openly and without fear of reprisal call thee an ignorant ill bred fool, well nigh unto the likes of the peasants thou abuseth with thy musings and clever speech.
Couldst thy mind mayhaps think that if thou continue to say *Adonai cannot challenge* unto thyself that thy wish shalt come true? Mayhaps if thou mightest click thy heels together once, twice, thrice....all will be well in the world and it shall be as nothing but daisies and thy daughter chasing through a field. Mayhaps thou hast belief that the Overlord shall save thee, and spare thyself the iniquity oft being defeated and revealed ast
the small yapping dog, whose teeth have no effect unto thine betters that thou most truely are. What blather....and how typical of thee.
I hast fulsomely reviewed my current standing...and a challenge unto thee within this cycle, foreasmuch as meaning tommorrow, couldst occur...the gathering of needed wins upon my peers is little but mine taking the miniscual amount of time it wouldst take me to gain them, and then...suddenly...you wouldst have to face the coldest face of reality.
Even Lord Cyrax couldst challenge the within the space oft this moon....thou hast made much of his fall in rank, and truely he pastly had fallen unto the rank of Master at Arms. Blithe words for one that hast fallen in rank himself afore. So verily Lord Cyrax hast reclaimed over fourteen new wins in his last several duels, finding defeat not at the hands of *skilled* duelers such as thyself...but unto the random hand oft
fate in the bladehand of a common man that oft times visits us all...and most surely visited mineself upon our last duel.
Continue thy blathering Perrinis....thou hast continued to demonstrate that foreasmuch no matter how any had thought I wore the Seventh when it twas mine own....thou art far less qualified in any and all fields to hold such a burden. I will come for thee....in my time...mayhaps upon the next weeks dawn...mayhaps I will wait. Thou hast my fulsome permission to speakest ast thou wish of me.....twill do naught to keep my blade from
exacting payment from thee in blood and agony.
I am,
~Adonai Uziel
~DragonLord of RhyDin
~Master of Chaos
~Warlord and Once Baron of the Seventh

General Perrinis, Baron of the Lily Pond,
You have continually mouthed your childish idiocies on the character of myself and my comrades, have many times commented on my loss of rank, which, by the way, I have regained. I will be a warlord on the following week, a position I might remind you that I've held longer and more times than you, which is something you tend to overlook when your flaccid gums begin pumping. Your ring, as most have already guessed, is only temporarily worn by you, as
there are certainly many more skilled warriors than yourself that sit idly by, awaiting the time when they shall step forward and take it from you. I warned you I would come for you, and despite the fact that at one time you and I were friends, and I actually served as one of your Guards when I was cast down as the God of War, I live for the day when you are cast down from a Barony I truly believe you do not deserve.

The angel reads the post of the Duke and one word comes to mind, verbose.
Mumbling in a sweet, musical tone she says softly,
"seems he has taken Old english 101".
Her smile is, of course, sincere as she posts nothing and flits off.

::reading over the posts, shrugging in a non-threatened sort of way, then posts up a few fun facts::
For whoever cares.
Despite the claims of others, I've never fallen from my warlord rank once I attained it.
Therefore, it would be easy for plenty of people to have been warlord more times than I, as I have been a warlord only once...a relatively long, unbroken stay.
Reminds me of a joke about a Frenchman, and Italian and an American who were bragging about how many times they and the Mrs... ahem.
With no debate unto deaf ears, only rectifications for interested parties,
