Soon that notion grew and propagated like a contagious sickness. Most believed that the legendary Mr. Skeletal has actually been bested for once and that this was Warlord's victory.

"Skelly," came Valentine's voice.

From among the crowd, Valentine appeared, his armor was in tatters, but a wide smile was on his face.

"It was a good fight, too bad you came a bit too late."

Dave didn't respond, he only returned the smile.

"Warlord wants to speak to you," Valentine informed the draugr.

"Oh, does he now? But where is he? Don't tell me he is afraid of me and my company?" Dave asked sarcastically. If Warlord did come out, there was nothing to save him from the Undead.

Valentine chose not to answer Dave's trick question. Even though it was obvious that Dave was right, admitting it would only make Warlord a coward.
