The Games of Saberhaven
Akira Axehammer vs. Dalkar Stonebiter
        Another dwarf-only fight peaks the interest of the spectators. At one end enters a redhaired and bearded mountain dwarf Akira, at the other is the dark haired Dalkar.
       Dalkar enters chanting a battle chant to honor his opponent. H ebelts it out at the top of his lungs, banging his axe and hammer together. He stands there chanting and banging as Akira rushes towards him. Dalkar drops his axe and hammer and stands with his glove nails ready.
       Akira brings his axe down to chop on the battlerager. Dalkar blocks the shot with his glave nails. He returns two quick jabs to the side of his opponent.
       Letting down his guard to strike, Dalkar takes a blow from the battle axe of Akira.
       Looking quickly at his glove nails and seeing blood, Dalkar pauses in his chant long enough to let out a psychotic giggle, and continues spitting out his chant.
       Dalkar jabs with his spiked glove but fails to block the massive blow from Akira to his arm.
       Akira returns with another horrendous blow to the battlerager's right arm.
       Unable to use his arms, Dalkar cannot manage to dodge the final axe blow if his opponent.
       Akira grins evilly and raises his axe for the kill.
       Dalkar looks at his floppy arms and exclames, "Now ya' just gone and pissed me off!"
       He continues his chanting and attacks Akira with his Head Spiker Helmet, trying to disarm the dwarf. He falls forward and misses, taking two blows from Akira in the meantime.
       Akira says, "There be no point in strugglin', it's over."
       Dalkar gets to his feet and spits out the dirt in his mouth. "Your last chance ta' surrender Akira."
       Akira admires the other dwarf's bravery. He chops down on his opponent, hoping to end it quickly, but the shot doesn't finish the battlerager yet.
       Dalkar charges head first into Akira, ramming his head spike into the dwarf. Akira tries to maintain his balance, but falls on his butt.
       The battlerager jumps on top of his opponent, arms useless, but trying to pin the other dwarf down with his body.
       Akira muscles his opponent up and off of him, then spins, hands on his axe and delivers the blow which ends the battle.
       As the healing priests come out to revive Dalkar, Akira takes a his bows before the cheering crowd. Dalkar's arms are bound and Akira helps his opponent up. The two walk off together.
       "C'mon," says Dalkar, "where can I buy you a good stout Dwarven Ale around here?"
