Trick or Treat challenge for Dragons Gate

[Winterborn]

Baroness,

I humbly set forth challenge to you for the Dragon's Gate.

I eagerly await your response.

Erik Winterborn

[G]

Validated, proceed as you will!

[Jaycy Ashleana]

Accepted.

Since Sunday the 13th seems to be a good day for a challenge (hello, Nayun and Rhi), we'll be having ours then too. At 9 ((ET)) though.

[Goldglo]

On the night of November 13th, Erik Winterborn and Jaycy Alexander did battle over the right to the Barony of Dragon's Gate!

Jaycy's particulars -
Colors: Azure, black, silver, and forest green coloring
Second: Roderick Douglas (absent, as he was fighting to acquire MoonBeryl over in the Outback). Pslyder seconded the Second
Lord of Honor: Pslyder

Erik's particulars -
Colors: White on blue
Second: Gwen Minx (absent)
Lady of Honor: None

Jaycy wanted a best-of-three format and, as Baron, she got it!

Duel 1
The Warlord got on the board in the first round and then Jaycy in the second. After that, it was a lot of feeling-each-other-out (figuratvely). Jaycy wound up opening a nice solid lead; Erik closed the gap considerably. In the end, Jaycy took home the victory to lead 1-0 in duels.

Thirteen rounds on the thirteenth day. Just thought I'd point that out.

Duel 2

After a very short break, Duel 2 commenced. This time, after a tentative start from both duelers, Jaycy channeled all the good mojo she could from Bladesingers past and put on a clinic, shutting out the Warlord and ensuring her continued reign as Baroness of Dragon's Gate.

Jaycy / Erik
Round 1: CP / CP (0-0)
Round 2: SH / LP (0-0)
Round 3: FCP / LC (1-0)
Round 4: FLP / TH (2-0)

Round 8: SH / SL (5-0)

Twenty-One total rounds, thirteen total points, and one defended Barony. Not bad for a night's work.

Congratulations to Jaycy for retaining her Barony, to Pslyder for retaining his Squireship, and to Erik for receiving a lesson he's sure to put to good use!
