Argo sits staring out to sea. Suddenly a messenger arrives from Slackton delivering the news that Leo has said he is waiting for me to attack.
I return a message that I have made a move. It is now up to him.Considering he has planned for weeks and bragged he will bring his THUNDER, she is disappointed he hasnt even turned up. Oh except for the Insight.
Argo waits. And waits. Another messenger shortly arrives and gives Argo a fancy scroll. Her eyes quint as she blinks trying to believe what she is seeing.

Leo's request that no port no nation voodoo be used was respected. However, the words on this scroll change everything for now Argo can invite Leo once more to parry. She does. He does not. He prefers to laze on the beach meditating in Akrotiri,swatting flies, (lord knows why they swarm around him) rather than turn up to the fight he pushed for, worked on for weeks to bring the THUNDER and bragged about. Argo hopes he has at least one good move as she realises he prob only has one chance and cannot mess it up.
But still nothing. Looking at the paper in her hand...dare she? Still nothing from leo. 10 props Chalkos. Argo listen for the flak. Silence.
10 Prop Neapolis..... Still nothing.
Argo sighs and resumes her seat. Legs dangling over the side of the dock she takes a lump of bread and some cheese from her bag and settles in for lunch. She thinks..'..maybe...the thunder will come...If it does...and it smashes me...the wait will have been worth it"

The old sea hag Mel, tired from her recent retrieval of the great bucket, wakes up disgruntled from her nap to Leo on her lawn. She shouts angrily as she casts some spells

Damn kids get off my lawn. Show some respect to your elders.

She sits back down as he runs off to fight Argo grumbling to herself.

eh, guess I'm just an old meanie. back in my day though, kids showed respect. eh. I need a longer nap.





all seriousness, sorry for somewhat ruining the 1v1 Argo, and losing my cool for a moment there. Hope you still have fun though.

and due to having no real talent for battle, and not having a spine to actually back up his talk. But sure let's go with earache :D

Disappointing.

Was expecting Leo to bring the Thunder, he didn't. Was playing too laid back.

Was expecting Argo to just demolish him, didn't. Was playing coy to Leo's laid back strat.

Overall Disappointing.

Lol..sorry to disappoint, Dez...
Argo -" Was playing coy to Leo's laid back strat."

I did my homework. I try not to ever underestimate anyone. I worked out Leo had one move if he had any at all. I knew he didn't have the chest so what else was there for him? I covered the idea he could have cards dropping in from the market over the next couple of days and allowed for unseen variables.
I had already eliminated from the play TS for him to try and be a bit fair.
Why should I have made more room to let him play out his strategy ?

There's your thunder right there!!
If I didn't make a certain move - he had nothing. My move had to be specific for him to act. And he had no plan B. He didn't even fire on Plan A.

I chose not to make the move and that gave him no quarter. I wanted to play a different way. I had my own strategy.
(Didnt really want to waste my voodoo anyway but was happy to engage we get to actually play it out)

Problem? We didn't get a chance to play it out. Leo says he quit because Mel yelled at him. (shrugs again).
I cast on him in an effort to play my strategy. He did not cast back until some hours later.

By then I had no idea if it was over or even if it is still going. I still dont.
But anyhow...Its just another day in Paradise. :D

well just wanna say, that, I do sincerely apologize to you argo, for stepping into this fight. You'd have beaten him for sure. That's the only thing I regret doing. Regardless, good on you for stepping up to a challenge.

Cheers :beer

Nevermind everyone, in my sleep deprived state, I cast on the wrong leo, shame it's such a common name. SO I did not mess up the duel. I just thought I did :D

Granted I did cast now, so, oh well lol.
