[Sealed Lands] The City of Taleas

Argus grimaces as he looks at the Royal Guard.

"Underhanded snotling, if it were my decision I wouldna have accepted the challenge in the first place. Always with their sneaky tricks. No honour amongst goblins, the slimy bstrds," he says bitterly, "Now be a good time for that potion, lad."

Seeing the well armoured foe, Aerick nods to his dwarven friend I think your right m'friend He goes ahead and downs the lion marked potion....thinks and downs one of the bear marked ones Marked with my totem...may the Great One be with me. He unslings his axe and readies his shield...Very well Goblin....lets begin

 

[Kalanyr]

As Aerick downs the potions he feels the spirits of the lion and the bear merge with him lending him their strength and endurance, those witnessing the event see Aerick's form temporarily overlapped by first the sillohuete of a roaring bear and then a roaring lion. (Aerick gains +2 Constitution from the potion marked with the Bear, and +2 Strength from the potion marked with the Lion).

The goblin looks startled for a second and then recovers
"I should have expected one of your kind to have access to such folk magic. But first put away the axe this ritual must be formally begun. Come here. "

The goblin beckons Aerick towars himself and draws a dagger which he runs across his hand making a slight cut thats just deep enough to draw blood.

"Now hold out your hand so that this may be begun. "

Dekiran walks up to Aerik and whispers to him, before he drunk the potions. "Take special care not to kill this man. The royal guard will not look kindly upon the killing of one of their own, regardless of the cirqumstances. He would be quite valuable to us if we brought him back intact. It is enough that you incapacitate him, for the moment."

Argus looks suspiciously at the dagger, as he'd been suspicious of everything about the goblin thus far that evening the dagger was no exception.

"Careful, probably poison on it which dinna affect goblins. Heh, goblin blood be enough ta make ye sick let alone any poison it'll have anyway. Vile stuff, blood containin' countless years of treachery and evil in them veins, aye," he says sourly.

 

[ferretguy]

Looking to Dekiran I will try my best not to kill this man...when he falls I will stop..if need be I do have an extra potion to at least stop him from dieing.
Feeling the powers of his totem and that of the lion wash over and through him Aerick feels ready to face this champion of the goblins.

Stepping forward he offers his shield hand....A blood oath....now that is something I do understand.

 

[Kalanyr]

The goblin runs his dagger along Aerick's hand inflicting a minor wound just deep enough to draw blood (no hp loss) and then grasps Aerick's hand. The little creature chants something in a tongue that is foreign to all but Rylis. You feel a distinct shimmering in the air and the goblin stands back.

"Let the Trial begin."

Rylis:

Spoiler

The goblins chant was an invocation to the gods of the dark fey, requestion them to sanctify and watch over the match.

Argus stands firm, scythe in hand, and ready to intervene should anything odd happen.

Dekiran sits down, for all outward appearances completely at ease. He is, however, ready to unleash the full power of his magic at a moments notice.
