With both contenders agreeing to a duel, the battle for the title of first commander was about to commence.
They both stood at opposite sides of the arena, already holding a weapon of their choice.
The arena was built for warriors to spar in when needed. Right now, it is used for just that.
Soldiers were curious to see how the battle would turn out and surrounded themselves around the arena. Most of them already had their hopes on Jordan.
A few of them, however, stood by the young lord's warrior choice.
Considering all the feats he had attained in the barony so far, to doubt him in this felt almost forced.
Dorian, on the other hand, stood at the side, close to the crowd, where he could get a good view of the fight from Maria's point.
So far, there were two things he had noticed before the fight had even begun.
One, Maria looked to be taking it too seriously. Ever since she stepped into the arena, her focus has been on Jordan.
