Keliek't didn't look pleased when he heard they had to take it outside, muttering something about "doing his best work indoors", but he didn't protest.<br/>He seemed to brighten considerably when Xol spoke up and accepted the challenge.<br/>"Brave words, hatchling! What you lack in brains you make up with guts!"<br/>The curious and amused crowd followed the duelists outside, eager to see what would happen.
