Take it, or run along with yer tail 'tween yer legs and leave me and my family be!"</strong>taunted Dafina, disguised as Daffy, Rayen's fiance.<br/><br/>Lord Geffray was unhappy with the challenge,<strong>"That's not a real fight."</strong><br/><br/>However, Rayen egged on the crowd by calling out,<strong>"A round on the house if my fiance can stay under longer."</strong>It was probably one of Rayen's wives that started the chant,<strong>"Dunk, Dunk, Dunk"</strong>, but it was was soon echoed by the entire bar.<br/><br/>Lord Geffray looked over Daffy with a speculative gaze. On the one hand, Daffy was relatively frail. On the other hand, it was an odd type of event, and it was not like someone to make a challenge that they were not confident of winning. Lord Geffray realized that declining would be worse than losing. So, he put a brave face on the challenge,<strong>"You'll no be beating me without magic. I was a champion swimmer in my day.</strong>He called out,<strong>"Summon the Good Father. He can be on the lookout for counterfeit magic."</strong><br/><br/>Getting ready for the challenge took some time as someone fetched Father Hammet and Rayena's wives brought two tubs of water into the main room. In the meantime, everyone ordered another round of their favorite beverage, and several people started making wagers on the contest's outcome.<br/><br/>Father Hammet had a few pithy remarks about the sins of drinking and gambling. However, the comments made the Good Father even less popular with his congregation. One wag shouted out from the back,<strong>"No drinking, fornicating or gambling, what's a man to do with his spare time and money."</strong><br/><br/>There was a tense moment as Dafina wondered if her magical nature or tattoo would give her away. The good father did look closely at her tattoo but dismissed it with,<strong>"Something cosmetics. What's the world coming to when males need to resort to cosmetics?"</strong><br/><br/>The two contestants took several deep breaths before immersing their upper bodies into the two tubs. Initially, the crowd was relatively subdued, but several people started cheering for their favorites after a minute. As the contest neared the three-minute mark, the group got more and more raucous. Finally, after about three minutes, Geffray raised his head from his tub and began gasping for air. Moans of disappointment and screams of success came from the spectators, depending on how they had bet.<br/><br/>Rayena knelt beside Daffy and cried out to the crowd,<strong>"My champion and fiancee!"</strong>She reached into the tub and gently pulled Dafina to the surface, and bestowed a kiss on her cheek.
