[OOC continued from the Boarding School:- 'Checking out the school'] [Once the main action begins and the villagers start to brawl in earnest. All are welcome to join the fun... surrounds.proboards20.com/index.cgi?board=out&action=display&thread=1096883395 ] *The morning has arrived and Coriolis is waiting... He's placed boulders in a ragged circle around 15 feet wide as a marker for the 'Ring'. Though the villagers have no knowledge yet of the challenge, they seem to know to keep away from the man at work...* *Alongside him are 2 foresters staves, each of them a good 5 foot long themselves. Both of them hewn from the branches that Rhiannon had knocked loose the previous night. He spends the moments he has by practicing with his chosen staff, It has been quite a while since he last used one. He thrusts and parries at nothing but air, the staff spinning like a catherine wheel on Guy Fawkes, never once missing a catch, never once losing his grip...* *The irony of the situation should not be lost on his old sparring partner, and he hopes 'friend'...* |

*Midnight due to her late night had slept in and after a quick wash and grabbing Mog along with the mysterious stone she headed to the Marketplace.*
Damn!! Sleeping in today of all days.
*With a fast walk Midnight is soon at the Marketplace and see's the works that Janis has done.For a few minutes she just watche's him as he practices.*
*Thinks*
This is going to hurt....
*Midnight has a slight change in hairstyles her normally loose hair is tied into a plait and was useful as a weapon at times if used rightly it bought the wearer some valuable minutes. She walks into the ring and places the confused Moogle out of the way.*
Sorry for the delay...I slept in.
*Midnight picks up the forester's stave then walks to the middle of the ring and begins to practice. She hasn't lost any of her touch even if it has been years since she last had a bout like this.After about 5minutes Midnight stops.*
Ready when you are.

[ModNote: The Brollachan was last seen here.] * The Brollachan hearing of something interesting may happen in the market decides to travel to the market. * * As he wants to remain out of harms way (for now) he appears in wall monster form on one of the buildings in Wolfenden. * * The Brollachan waits and watches... * |

*He holds his staff like an honour guard parade. Placing it within her weapon reach, 'The Warriors Respect...* You care for this folly as much as you think you do?  |

I wouldn't call it a folly in the slightest....besides maybe one good thing will come from it....you'll loose some weight.  but hopefully there'll be two and I'll loose you. |

IMPACT!!
*A rather stunned Midnight steps backwards but with a brisk shake of the head Midnight is back to normal...despite the lovely red mark on her forehead.
Within seconds the strike is returned aiming for Janis's side at full speed.*

*... To be parried, tip to tip by his staff on the downswing. Both staves circle and slide off each other...*
*He continues the spin and aims another ,baseball like, blow to the side of her neck...*

IMPACT! *The blunt staff-end causing a bullet-hole like bruise that'll definately be felt in the morning.* OOF!  *He staggers back and regains his posture...* Nicely done..... *Holding the staff vertical, right hand below the left, He brings to bear an upward swipe... Not caring where it connects so long as it does...* |

*A deepening wince and a face red with pain and rage....*
*With a bellowing roar that only a cat could truly produce, He charges her...*
*His staff hooks behind hers, so that it's between Midnight and her own weapon. Sheer momentum carrying him, he lifts her bodily and catapults her out of the ring...*

UP!!OVER!! AND AWAY!! *Midnight flies through the air and ends up landing in a crowd of people. Getting lots of dirty looks and yells of anger. They all suddenly move and she lands with a thud on the ground.* umph. *Several bruises were gained from that and what appeared to be several angry villagers who had dropped items of value or importance in some way. Including what was a very expensive vase.* Oh oh!! This may bring some trouble... *With that a man approches...the husband of the woman withthe X vase by the ring on his finger. With a kick to her rib Midnight quickly get's up...and punches him across the face...* *Thinks* Maybe Dunnfalls would of been a better choice.....  |

* Broll had been watching and decides to make things more interest * Is everyone standing on firm ground? * recieves slightly puzzled looks * Spell-casting: R-O-C-K-Y * At this point the ground below the battlers shakes, and becomes uneven. There is no longer a nice flat surface for them to battle on. * [ModNote: The Brollachan is next seen in Dawn Drink.] |
