Dew stood in the realms boasting to all around him the glories and power of the Infernal Order of D'Sar. Soon the Stygian Temple put in their two cents, which did not please the Barbarian. Dew continued his boast mocking the Sytigan Temple and how weak they actually were. The fight of words continued for hours, to which there was no victor. Dew who was nothing but a citizen in the Infernal Order who was nothing when compared to his former glory argued consisetenly against the sorcerer Sparky. Sparky is a high ranking member of the Stygian Temple, while Dew remained domant and stagnent after leaving the Brood and only degrading when he joined the misfits... Sparky continued on his training, his hide was expressly tough even amongst Draconians. Dew's skin was weak and he has only retained a portion of the muscles that once bulged forth.
Yet Dew continued to spout the end of the Stygian Temple, for they sat in their temple and practiced this magick that Dew has no real understanding for. Finally when the words between them were done, Sparky challenged Dew to a fight in the Arena. Dew laughed at this, believing he was as strong as he used to be. He said to himself, " I fight in the arean? Why doesn't he just face me in a real battle. " But shrugging it off, he headed for the arena.
Dew couldn't see Sparky for the Sorcerer was a master of the shadows, yet he smelled Sparky. Dew rammed in that direction with a powerful bash, stunning Sparky. Dew slashed with his swords, making cuts and gashes in the hide of the Draconian. Dew thought he was doing great, the damage he was inflicting would have made a normal sorcerer drop to thier knees in pain. But Sparky continued trying to cast his spells. A few spells were cast, others Sparky was forced to stop reciting because of Dew's bash. After time inciting the rules of the Arena, Dew stopped the battle.
Sparky boasted back to Dew saying that was the strength of magick. But Dew knew better, there was no power in Sparky's magick. Dew finally learned that the cowerdice sorcerer had a hide tougher than Dew had ever encountered, although Sparky's magick was weak it was more than impossible to harm the Draconian. Both sides were to full of thier ego's to give in to one another, so they kept argueing. Sparky stated that his magick was beyond superior, while Dew being the loser of the battles stood his ground still stating that it was the durable hide of the Draconian. " Even with weak magic you can remain because normal attacks don't hurt you so. " Exclaimed the Titan barbarian Dew.
Finally Sparky left on a journey of his own, now alone in the town of Kjeldoran Dew spoke with his Lord Darkstar. He said to him " I have dishonored you M'Lord, I have lost in a battle against the Sorcerer Sparky. I am ashamed at what I have let myself become. Grant me another chance to prove my Valor to thee once again."
Darkstar said to Dew, " Tisk tisk my old chum, you are not the warrior you used to be. You rested and dwindled your years away. I have faith in you, as I always have. You are one of my greatest warriors, although a defeat in the arena is a harsh thing to take... especially to the Stygian Temple. You must look at this experience and rise up, learn from the mistakes. Hone your sword skills, train your body to accept more punishment than you can imagine. Strengthen your body. I will not grant Citizen Dew another chance, but I shall grant Dew the D'SARI KNIGHT ANOTHER CHANCE." Darkstar exclaimed.
Dew was amazed Darkstar didn't take the defeat as a dishonorable act. But as a chance for Dew to improve himself. Darkstar even granted Dew the rank of a Knight, which amazed the titan. Dew spoke to Darkstar once more.
" M'Lord your words honor me, I must go at this time. I shall train myself. I will train my body to the durability of mithril. I shall train my skills to that beyond a grand master. I will defeat Sparky when the day comes. This to ye M'Lord is not only a promise.... I bet my life upon it. When the time comes, I will either defeat Sparky or drop the Stygian Temple to ruins..... Or I forfeit my life."
With that said Dew went out on a journey to train himself for the next battle.
