Oppel entered the Academy of Arms, for he wanted to fight. It had been a while since his sword was last used and he felt that perhaps some practise fights would help him incase he had to use his sword. He walked into an arena and took out his sword. He walked further towards the middle of the arena, as his trustful sword dangled from his hand. Once he reahed the center of the arena, he readied his sword and himself into an taunting poisiton, and waited for a challenge.

Drizza watched as the man walked into the arena. Perhaps he was looking for a battle with someone. She dropped down from her leafy perch and headed towards the stadium.

"Are you here for a fight?"

"Why else would I be standing here?" questioned Oppel sarcastically. He moved from his taunt position to an offensive position as his eyes locked themeslves on Drizza. He smirked then shouted to her, "well are you coming or what?" He smirked again as he prepared his mind for a battle.

Drizza answered with a wry smile. She drew her two swords and began circling the man.

"What is your name?" she asked as she continued to circle the enemy "I should have the priviledge of knowing my opponent's name."

The drow got ready, should the man attack, she would be ready.

Oppel chuckled, "Of course you do." he spoke. "My name is Rietus Lyoque," he lied, "yours?" He lifted his sword up infront of his face and then quickly sliced the air and putting it back down to his side as yet another taunt. He waited for any action on the drow's part.

Drizza chuckled and replied "Yes, and I am Eliene.DO not be so foolish, man, I can see that you are not telling the truth, I am not as gullible as you think I am." The man still had not attacked. But a true warrior is patient, so Drizza would wait until her opponent would attack.

((...))

Oppel sighed, yet again a foolish mortal wanting to outwit a god. Oppel lifted his sword to his face once more and muttered a few words of the forest. Then, a soft green light appeared at the tip of his oaken saber and travelled down to it's hilt and collected itself within the green diamonds which began to grow a bright green. The sword had just harvested the power of nature. Oppel smiled as he twirled the sword in his hand and aimed it towards the foolish drow. "Im dar an amank rink!" he shouted at his circling challenger.

Drizza expected such a move from the god. If it's not physical she thought it's magcial. She dove out of the way as a green light lit up Oppel's sword. Strange Drizza wondered why is nothing happening? She parried away from the blade and began bombarding the stranger with short powerful lashes with her longblade. The other was kept for defense should her opponent attempt to attack her.

lol sry i forgot my char didnt know you were a god and that magical beam...

Oppel moved quickly from left to right moving the oaken blade quicker and quicker to meet the oncoming barrage of attacks. Luckily the sword also raised his agility. Oppel then ducked and rolled away from his opponent and quickly pushed himself up from the ground and lunged with an attack.

The man almost struck the drow. He cut her sleeve and gave Drizza a small cut to her arm. But this did not discourage her, in fact, it made Drizza realize that this wasn't her average opponent that posed not challenge, this was a challenge. Drizza blocked the sword and used her other in an attmept to slice the man at his waist. But knowing this opponent, he would do something about it so Drizza tried to twist the sword out of his arm.

Oppel glanced at the other sword about to meet his waist then looked back to his other arm to see he sword had been knocked out of his hand. He instinctively pulled out his fighting knives and both of them met the sword aiming for his waist. Using his utmost strength, he pushed the sword away and crouched down to pick up his sword after collecting both knives in one hand. He then put the knives away quickly and smirked. He then turned and swung at the drow's legs.

Drizza felt the might of the man's strength. She was pushed to the ground, and the man was attacking her again. Drizza dodged several strikes while she processed what had happened and kicked her opponent with all her might. It knocked the man off his feet and to the ground several feet away. Drizza lounged at him, careful should he attempt to kick her off, her sharpened blades could possibly cut off the foot.
