[wodenworhteweos]

I've spent the last forty years running a kingdom. This realm offers little compared to that.

[wodenworhteweos]

Are you saying I might cause an accident brawl across the entire island?

It would be rather amusing if that happens, wouldn't it?

[ramuhs]

[He can't believe he's helping here. Is helping Barnabas? Or trying to stop innocent dark haired swordsmen from being attacked?? DOES IT MATTER AUGH this man will drive him insane.]

Just post a damn picture.

[wodenworhteweos]

No.

[He's not going to admit he doesn't know how.]

[ramuhs]

[Why does that sound so childish. And he's going to suspect it because let's be real he's the only one of the group who has probably figured out how to completely operate this thing—]

Your loss.

[wodenworhteweos]

[And Barnabas is not to dignify that with a response. He's eager to see what chaos this will bring.]

[activatingcombatmode]

Hold on, you're over forty?! Are you sure you should be fighting?

[Old man alert???]

[wodenworhteweos]

I am seventy years old, and still one of the greatest swordsmen of my star. In forty years of rule only one man gave me a challenge.

[gruffier]

What!? [ Fuck... fuck fuck of course he would try to pull something like that here.

Thank goodness it was only voice, but the scowl certainly comes through with his words. ]

I won't let you do that.

[greedsever]

[ that totally isn’t vague, no. ]

Then surely any battle here could entertain you. There are many from other worlds that may give you what you want.

[wodenworhteweos]

That is what I am hoping.

[wodenworhteweos]

You're welcome to try to stop me.

[There is amusement in his voice.]

Though, I would prefer if you joined me.

[garudas]

where shall we meet

wouldnt want to level this island to the ground now would we

[Regret? Maybe... Or maybe this is exactly what she needs.]

[activatingcombatmode]

[Old man alert???]

Still?! At your age?! I don't know about that... Maybe you should be resting your knees or something. I don't know if I can fight someone at your age. I'd feel bad.

[He can't fight a grandpa?!]

[wodenworhteweos]

Yes. At my age.

I am in better condition than most people decades younger.

[It helps that he allowed his God to turn him into a zombie and stopped aging in his forties.]

I conqured a continent when I was a young man, and ever since only one man has defeated me in combat, and he was blessed by God himself.

[lordofcalamity]

You're in a whole new world. I'm sure there are plenty of things here that you haven't tried yet.

[verboaten]

You a Corsair? If so, how's the fighting arena closest to the pier then?

[pinksidekicking]

Your common tongue sounds difficult to say.

If I squint, it almost looks like "wooden, worth, woes".

[gruffier]

You know that will never happen.

[ His words sound like venom. Lace with the disbelief of the other man's words. He couldn't be serious (and yet he always was). ]

Ultima is not here. There is no one for you to champion a cause for.

[wodenworhteweos]

I didn't need Him when I conquered Ash.

[He still worshiped him, as instructed by his mother and their people, but Ultima did not show himself to Barnabas until later.]

I do not need Him to be here in order to serve Him.

[wodenworhteweos]

I meant Oden Wrought Idols was the translation from the old tongue into the common tongue.

But that is close to how you would pronounce it.

[wodenworhteweos]

I am. My colleague has just informed me of those. I shall be making my way there shortly.

[wodenworhteweos]

I doubt it. I spent most of my youth on ships. I've been on many adventures as a young man. I've ruled a nation for forty years, and all that entails. I am my God's champion.

Battle is what I was raised for.

[wodenworhteweos]

Lets find an out of the way place. I'm not sure how this world would effect our eikons.

[activatingcombatmode]

That's ... a pretty snazzy resume. [And also marginally weird??]

Still, I think I'll have to see it to believe it. Until then I'm going easy on you. There's absolutely going to be a bar set.
