Gambling is not something Raban really concerned himself with, but the idea of betting on someones life or death or any stage of such just seems wrong. Chion would win, he was sure, Zing did not seem one who was destined for importance. The whole duel feels wrong, staged, but how would Zing's death benefit anyone? Surely they did not think Zing could win, but perhaps they just wanted to see Chion fight? If so, whoever planned this cares little for anyone but them self. That Sorceress could fit that description but then any of Chaos could. It is possible they know of our mission and thought Chion was to one they needed to worry about if they wish to stop us? In any case, we must all be watching for trouble, from any direction. I should say something to Chion, but nothing I say will help him. I cannot even congratulate him for such a senseless killing. It is best to say nothing then. Raban shakes his head sadly, turns and walks away. Raban bows briefly, "Zhou, please pass on my thanks to Sven and the High Elder. I can but hope this will prevent my presence from slowing everyone down. I must unfortunately tell you that I am entirely unskilled at riding, I have never needed to know that skill. I have seen others ride of course, so I have a little idea as to what is required, the rest I will have to learn as we travel. From what you have said, the horse seems strong enough, though I think I am heavier than the rider you suggested. But I do travel lightly, so I should be under the total. I assure you I will not be planning on riding any faster than I must, nor trying to fight from his back. Frankly, I think I will be worried that I will hurt the poor beast if I should move wrong or worse hold on too strongly. Perhaps I should ask someone for some quick instructions on what I should and should not do?" _______________________________________________ pnpgm mailing list pnpgm@abroere.xs4all.nl http://abroere.xs4all.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pnpgm
