(YBA) Drax in Wicht's Lair

[Wicht]

The doppleganger also puts away its equipment and then takes up a stance opposite Drax.

The two combatants begin to move at each other at almost the same time.

Drax's Doppleganger
Round: 1

The cherry blossom tumbles through the cemetery; guards against the quickening of the iron!

 

[Dalamar]

The lotus blossom prances over the tundra; avoids the push of the rodent!

As expected, both combatants chose styles similar to each other. Drax tries to leap over his adversary and see how skillful he is.

 

[Wicht]

Drax leaps high and the doppleganger rolls low.

The voice speaks, "Neither move is that effective, but the defender uses the terrain a bit better."

A flag unfurls over the dopplegangers side of the arena.

Drax's Doppleganger
Round: 2

The east wind punches below the canyon; fends off the quickening of the farm!

 

[Dalamar]

The scythe dodges from the island; dodges the efforts of the star!

Drax takes on the offensive scythe style and... leaps away from the doppleganger and takes on total defense.

 

[Wicht]

The voice speaks, "Point to the defender."

Another flag unfurls over the dopplegangers side of the arena. There is only one neutral flag left.

Drax's Doppleganger
Round: 3

The mace drops on top of the paradise; parries the kick of the cave!

 

[Dalamar]

The nunchaku glides close to the city; removes the stab of the lash!

Getting a little worried of his own succeeding, Drax glides in on towards the doppleganger and jabs it in the face.

 

[Wicht]

As Drax glides in to strike his double, the double strikes him on the head.

"Point to the defender," says the voice behind Drax. A third flag unfurls in the dopplegangers side of the arena and the fight is over. With a grin, the doppleganger melts back intot he sand of the floor. Drax turns and sees, the weapons he laid on the arena floor also being sucked down. And then they too are gone.

The torches go out and Drax is alone in a crumbling fighting arena.

 

[Dalamar]

"It seems I'm pretty lousy fighter for being beaten even by myself."
Drax goes to gather what eguipment he has left and dons his armor.
"Maybe I am too dependant on eguipment... I'll need to study this."
With such thoughts in his mind, Drax sets forth to follow the path he was on before entering the arena.
"I should be glad I didn't take a death match."

 

[Wicht]

Drax walks out of the arena and heads north towards the cavern mouth. Within the cavern all is dark and silent. Drax will need a light of some sort.

 

[Dalamar]

Am I correct in assuming that I can have whatever common eguipment I need? In this case, torches.
