As the two competitors move towards the competition area, the Suqah finish shooing away the wandering unicorns and place a temporary fence around the target area to stop both wandering animals and humans from getting hurt by stray arrows or flying debris from the targets. A coin flew into the air and a call was made. Ecentrah was to shoot first. She pulled an arrow from her quiver, and knocked it into place, drawing back the string. Letting it go, the arrow flew impossibly fast and true to the target. The target itself exploded, leaving only a smoking heap of debris. The two Suqah manning the safety fence looked at each other, both thinking the same thing, "...glad they friends now."

Spelsa was standing of to the side with Merlin and the King when Nexitum got ready to take his shot, she felt the hairs on the back of her head standing on end. Merlin, feeling the same, turned and pushed Spelsa to the side just as a fireball ripped through the space between them. From a now widening rift that was forming, out steps Morgan Le Faye, a swirl of magical energy surrounding her body. Other rifts appear throughout the keeps grounds, and soldiers burst forth from them. All around King Kid Arthur's subjects arm themselves with weapons scattered around the grounds in wheelbarrows and carts, not taking the time to wonder at all why they happened to be there.

Merlin engaged Morgan Le Faye in a magical battle, with Spelsa throwing her own spells until a soldier of Le Faye's faced her and swung his sword in her direction.

Without thinking, she reached for the Lava whip Nexitum had giver her and lashed out at the soldier with the vicious weapon scoring a hit that made the soldier think that this little girl wasn't to be trifled with. The soldier turned and ran away looking for a easier foe to fight. Spelsa gave chase, casting spell after spell at him until he ran straight into a Suqah that was busy dispatching some of Le Faye's soldiers. The poor man was then swatted so hard that he was buried up to his chest in the ground he was just standing on.

While Merlin and Morgan Le Faye were trading deadly spells, King Kid Arthur was fighting four enemy soldiers. Queen Lorry was behind him firing her bow rapidly picking off the men as they jumped through the magical rifts. Nexitum and Ecentrah were in fine form standing back to back firing their new strykebows with deadly precision. Arrow after arrow flew from their bows as a heavily loaded Suqah dropped extra quivers of arrows near the two rival guards. The Suqah, taking note of Moragn Le Faye close by an open rift, ran at her and jumped, delivering a kick to her stomach so forcefully that it sent her flying back through the rift. Seeing this, Merlin took this perfect time to close that particular rift. That done, he looked at the Suqah and smiled. He then set to work closing the rest of the rifts.

King Kid Arthur's swords moved through the air like a whirlwind of steel, rapid and deadly. During all this movement, his trademark straw hat, or boater as he called it,

fell off his head and was caught up in what looked like King Kid Arthur's personal tornado. Up it flew out of reach, but he took no notice of it.

All around him there were sounds of metal on metal as all the enemy soldiers were dispatched with efficient sword, arrow and spell strikes. A squad of the mighty Suqah were fighting the enemy without weapons or armour and doing very well using beefy fists and massive feet to defeat the enemy.

Unbreakable leaned against his ale cart and watched the show until a soldier came too close. He reached out and bashed the soldier over the head with the tankard he was drinking from, denting it beyond future use. Unbreakable muttered under his breath, "That was my best tankard you bastard," as he kicked the soldier with the caved in skull away from his cart.

Jura Mist and Tonkad were fighting near each other both swinging great weapons with practiced skill allowing no enemy soldier to gain ground near them. When the two fierce warriors had cleared the area of foe, they began to move on the other solders in the area that were fighting with some of the lesser skilled castle occupants.

Psycotropy and Fierysfury were fighting and moving towards Spelsa, their daughter, who was surrounded by the enemy. They could hear her whip cracking and hissing at any foe that got within reach of her. As her parents approached, they noticed Ryou, the Fremminick warrior, and Merlin's son, by Spelsa's side protecting her. He fought like a man possessed, with the enemy men falling at every swing of Ryou's twin daggers.

Ecentrah and Nexitum both ran out of arrows at the same time they ran out of foes. They collapsed to the ground, exhausted but appreciative of each other's skills. Ecentrah whispered in Nexitum's ear, "28." He laughed and didn't bother to mention his kill count was 31. He would let her have the victory on this day.

There were no more enemy left to fight this day, and so the Suqah began the task of dragging away the dead. Luckily, none of King Kid Arthur's people were lost in this battle, but there were plenty of sore arms, cuts, and bruises to be attended to.

King Kid Arthur's personal tornado diminished and his prized straw hat landed gracefully on its edge and rolled towards him. He scooped it up and replaced it firmly on his head. Tonkad and Jura were standing nearby, both men leaning heavily on each other, as they were exhausted from the intense action. King Kid Arthur walked over to the men and addressed Tonkad asking, "How did you know to bring out the weapons, Master Smith?"

Tonkad shrugged and replied, "Had a hunch", and left it at that.

The Suqah had cleaned up the grounds very quickly, and any living soldiers of Le Faye's were rounded up and herded towards the castle's dungeon. There very just five of them remaining alive, and the enemy dead numbered 75.

Nexitum sighed and thought, "That was just the thing to sort out this lots' morale. i couldn't be more proud today." He was roused from his musings by Unbreakable yelling out, "New barrels opened!" At the end of this day, even the Suqah had a hearty drink. After all, they deserved it too!

With all the recent events at the castle, a mission to Neitiznot had slipped King Kid Arthur's mind. He knew he needed to address this right away, but who to send? Because of the recent invasion attempt, he was unwilling to leave the castle himself. While he was pondering this dilemma, Odin wandered in with Ayt and Julij. Struck by inspiration, King Kid Arthur said, "Just the people i needed to see! I have a job for you and any you choose to take with you." The three of them froze and silently waited for the King's orders. The King explained that he needed them to travel to Neitiznot and gave them the details of the tasks they would need to complete when they reached the island. "Who would you like to take with you, Odin?"
Odin stated that he would bring five of the Suqah, Julij and Ayt's dog, Caesar.

"You shall set off in the morning," King Kid Arthur said, "because tonight we will have a feast!"
The King knew that Psycotropy had heaps of leftover food from the earlier competition, and it needed to be eaten before it fell to waste. Tables were setup in the banquet hall laden with large quantities of delicious food and additional tables loaded with tankards and barrels of tasty ale. The feast was noisy and messy but everyone had a wonderful time. They celebrated until none left the table without a full belly and a potential hangover. Long after Psycotropy and his helpers had cleaned up the food, Unbreakable's Ale table had been moved closer to the fire. Chairs were filled, as many stayed to exchange tales of past adventures by the soft glow of the firelight.

Odin and his party retired early to avoid hangovers. They knew that the trip to Relleka to catch the ship to Neitiznot was a fair march, and would be much better completed with a clear head. The journey was mostly uneventful until they got to Sinclair Mansion and saw the poor highwayman that Bomber's Ironman, Giff, had bashed in the head previously. He was walking, or more like limping and staggering, with a bandage over his head covering one eye. The poor highwayman saw the party and the Suqah, and nearly fainted, his unbandaged eye bulging nearly out of its socket! He turned and ran off screaming at the top of his lungs, "Noooooooo!! Not those guys again!" Odin's party laughed and carried on with their march. Caesar turned out to be a champion rabbit hunting dog. There were two rabbits for each person, and three for Caesar, even though he had eaten at least 10 small rabbits and a seagull that flew to low got caught as well.

Back at the castle, there were sleeping bodies scattered around the castle grounds. Many were around the still blazing fire and most were sleeping so deeply that they didn't realize just how cold it had become. Some of the older and more veteran drinkers stirred to notice a layer of frost coating grass. They scratched their heads in confusion and began to glance hurriedly around the area, looking for the source of this strange magic. Giggling was soon heard behind one of the Ale barrels, and every now and then an ice spell burst over the sleeping people.

Unbreakable, wide awake and with tankard in hand, crept up behind the sneaky little spell caster and tapped her on the shoulder. Jumping at the tap, the spell caster spun around in mid ice spell and hit Unbreakable's tankard causing it to chill rapidly. Unbreakable drained his icy drink and cheered, "Well done lass! That really hit the spot!" With all the new drink possibilities running through his head, he mused aloud, "Iced Ale! Spelsa, you are truly a wonderful young lady!"

Laughing, Spelsa ran from the fire area away from the frosty comatose people that were now slowly waking up. Shivering and confused, they moved closer to the fire. Knowing that all would be thirsty and hungry, Psycotropy rang the bell for breakfast and watched as the now warmer group wandered towards the dining room.

After reaching Neitiznot, Odin and his group successfully negotiated trade with the leaders for all manner of items. One key thing obtained was the versatile yak. Yaks were sturdy beasts of burden native to the island. Before leaving the island, they also announced a mighty feast of celebration to be held in honor of Kid King Arthur's coronation. The coronation was to take place in Camelot in one month. On their return to Camelot, Odin's group made stops at the other settlements in King Kid Arthur's kingdom to spread the word of the celebration to all. The final leg of the journey home was quiet, and when they passed the Sinclair's Mansion they saw no sign of the poor highwayman at all!
