"The people of the Vale of Mists are not cowards, Mister Yotsun," Heila said proudly from the arena floor. "We have faced unbeatable foes before and even if we lost a battle, we never lost the war."
Heila had no idea what Yotsun was playing at by talking of surrender or attempting to alter their wager at this late stage. They had both come much too far to back down now that what felt like half the population of High Fen City had gathered to witness this historic battle. Did he really think that she would back down and surrender just because he asked her to without even revealing his final champions?
