After giving the Overlord Dalamare Ar'Daumon his respectful due, by first notifying him of my intent, then following up with a formal challenge, I would now humbly annnounce the challenge publiclly to the community of DoS.Greetings Overlord Dalamare Ar'Daumon, Goldendust Evermeadow, The time has come to turn the intent of challenge into an official challange, which l am doing hereby. My reasons for this challenge are private, though your reply to the friendly information of intend has only strengthened my resolve to go through with this. The required peerwins as well as a few extras are included.Should you see nothing in the way of accepting my challenge, my Lord of Honor shall be my fiancee Sir Jerod Alexander and my son, Tormay Eludes. My colors are jade and black. My second will be announced at a later date. Please let me know when if you wish for me to secure the services of an RDI or if it is your preference to do so yourself. Sincerly Topaz Eludes

::walks up and reads the post.. noting that the challenger didn't even bother to learn the correct spelling of his name.. shakes his head a bit before posting his response::
Lady Topaz Eludes,
Due to your rushed challenge and obvious lack of respect for me - be it deserved or not - I do not intend to officially accept this challenge until the maximum amount of time that I am allowed. I will set the time, date, and place of the match, and I will secure a caller for our match when I do officially recognize your challenge. Until then, Warlord.
respectfully,
Lord Dalamar Ar'Daumon
Overlord of the Duel of Swords
Lord of the Dale
Guardian of the Oldest House.
::his name written in bold to emphasize the correct spelling for future reference::

::Reads over Dal's reply, finding the gist of it much as expected. Notices his signature being bolder that usual, on an inofficial reply at that, and still missing the *e*. Further wonders how he misconstrues disrespect in any way from a challenge made with all considerations, and that from a man that call's her Tiny instead of by her given name in public. Takes a pencil and a piece of paper to pen a reply::
Lord Ar'Daumon,
My thanks to you for taking the time to let me know you have received my missive. l am looking forward to see your official one at the end of the alotted time. Until then, Overlord,
Sincerely,
Topaz Eludes

The sun rose up over the eastern ridge of the battlefield, the tree line now barren of any leaves, leaving grey shadows of vein-like lines upon jagged poles cast upon the snow covered ground. A soft gentle wind whipped up from the north, small rings of swirling snow danced across the field, the whiteness so new and clean, like a virgin bride gliding, twirling down the aisle in her satiny gown. Winter had arrived in Rhydin. The air was no longer tempered with lingering currents of the indian summer breeze. It was biting cold, the kind of damp cold that chills to the bone. A harsh time indeed, as a steady scattering of snow flurries continued to fall with the winter temperatures. Back at the arena, Cygnet Seraphin-UzieI slipped down the steps from the Inn. Her face was drawn form the nights events... her husband had returned most unexpectedly from the abyss of immortal death, and she was more pale from lack of needed rest then usual. Her stride was slow, lacking in the fluid grace each step would normally fall. As she made her way to the corkboard, she reached into the inner pocket of her heavy woolen cloak and opened afine linen parchment penned in her trademark deep green ink. Making use of a small dagger, she secured the announcement in the center of the board for all to read.~Overlord Challenge Tonight~This eve, Friday, the 26th day of December, at 8 by the eastern clock,upon the Battlefield of Rhydin, the HonorableTopaz Eludes will challenge the HonorableLord Dalamar Ar'Daumonfor the title of Overlord. Do dress accordingly
