déodat,

There was no satisfying sword meeting flesh. Instead, he brushed by the stallion by mere inches. Frustration and rage sweltered up inside of him. How could this fucking behemoth escape from his horn? There was no time to dwell on such things. Later he could brood and let his pride fester a bit. His body was tiring and he knew he would only be a matter of time before it would be reaching exhaustion and running upon adrenaline alone. He felt himself bolt onward and the blow of his opponent’s hooves graze across his tail. Silent relief hit him at the thought of having those two clubs strike into his flesh. Those would be wounds that most definitely would hurt in the morning and probably for several mornings afterward. As the stallion drew passed his opponent, he realized it may be slightly difficult to stop. Coming to a screeching halt would be foolish he knew, but he better stop soon since a wall was waiting to greet him. All at once Déodat slammed down his hooves and he felt himself skid forward from the slick stones beneath, and the force caused him to trip slightly. His right front leg fell down toward the stones below and a good portion of his weight fell upon that single knee. Pain shot through him and he winced. Such a position left him vulnerable, so he swiftly pushed himself up. Again a wave of pain hit, but this time in his back from the bruises that had formed.

Sweat dripped down his sides and his breaths were coming in heavily. A decision was coming and he knew the time to end it would be soon. Déodat was the soldier who was relentless and bold upon the battlefield. He wouldn’t bow unless his neck was spilling out blood and his lungs had given out their final breath. At the same time, there were battles worth fighting until the very end, and others that must end while he was ahead, and this particular spar was one that was destined to end before a death. Truly it was disappointing to leave this hornless pauper to wander another day. There would be another dawn to give the brute the guillotine. His horn would be given the glory of letting the monster’s head roll. For now though, he would let the beast live for the sake of survival and any chance at winning the war against the beasts.

As much as the Blood Prince wished for the call of war to end for the moment, it wasn’t. The serpentine creature wasn’t through with him, and he saw it coming. As the creature came toward his face he lowered his head and he could feel the heat of it’s foul flame above his head. Instinct screamed for him to retaliate and desecrate the beast into carrion and be food for the vultures. One day Déodat would slay the foul snake, this he vowed upon the blood of his father. One day this behemoth and it’s dragon would all into his grasp.

“Enough,” Déodat commanded glaring at him, his voice laced with breathiness due to his oncoming exhaustion. “I’ll let you go hornless, only because I hate those damned wraiths more than you.” With that, he trotted off down another passage way. His ears turned behind him in case his foe chose to come upon him once more.
