Dear Sol Auk,

I cannot divine the future and speak with certainty who'll become Legate.
It's easy to determine the way the wind blows for now though.

Thus I write you this, wondering what your stance is...

I wish a return of sanctioned duelling, like in the days of old.

Firstly, I wonder if two men consent to a duel of honor to be had between them, if that would in present time be considered "Assault"?
If yes, would you work to amend that?
Secondly, I wonder where these duels can be legally had? Or where they *should* be had? If you say the "Stadion" I will cry, because we all know how difficult it is to arrange access!
Lastly, I wonder if such a duel ended with death, that would be controversial to you?

I wonder about your stance on this matter.
It'd be a return to honour to have such possibilities.

However the condition must always be that both the challenger and challenged consent prior to the duel taking place.
I don't mean for this to be a tool used to force people to battles. That would be abused by less savory types.

With kind regards,

Alfred Delafosse

A response comes from an exhausted looking Scribe, slight dusting of blue upon the parchment]

QuoteGreet.

Two locations are had, both of the Krak.

The Krak de Rose has an upstairs chamber, free of the Legalities of the Sultan's Well.

So too has La Banda Rossa a fighting pit.

If you wish to contest such a thing as a "Duel", as the scribe has explained in ancient Human custom, you may arrange undoubtedly with La Banda Rossa for either location and bypass security measure if it is to be a contest of death.

Violence they seem to favor.

Though Sol Auk and his people are not so concerned of things as Honor it is understandable some humans do.

May this shed some light on your endeavors and bring clarity.

Dear Sol Auk,

Thank you for your enlightening answer.

I ask you only a final question...

If one is killed during a duel to the death in the La Banda Rossa fighting pits...
Will the Janissaries still consider it murder after?

Best regards,
