He stretches and flexes for the crowd, as he moves to the center of the circle, accepting the challenge.Many thoughts run through Tor's mind in the space of an instant. ~He's huge, even if he is shorter than me. He's probably about 10 years my senior, so I shouldn't underestimate his skill. I also don't want to insult the Maldrog, so I'm not going to pull any punches. I will try my hardest to win. It's my hope that he is skilled enough and strong enough to make this an even fight. If I am obviously over-powered for him, I will hold back just a little, but somehow I suspect that will not be the case. I don't need to trade punches with him; I need to get him into a grapple, and use my superior height to lift him and throw him. I want this to be a contest of champions; I want to give the crowd a good show. If I win, I want the victory to seem hard-won; if I lose, I want HIS victory to seem hard-won. That way, in either outcome, both sides have the other side's mutual respect and admiration.~Merin places a bet on Tor to win.</blockquote>
