Lady Avinna (scared):
Ah, couldn't we do without a fight!
 
Sir Urgen (indolently):
This insult can only be washed off with blood. What's said is said. Things done cannot be reversed. The duel must solve our argument.
 
Lady Avinna:
Perhaps...
 
Sir Urgen:
No, no and no! I demand this duel and won't settle for less.
 
Unfred the Rogue (humbly):
Very well, so be it.

Scene two
 
The duel. Sir Urgen is armed with sword and buckler. Unfred is armed with sword and dagger. Opponents come to blows and exchange a few attacks. Unfred skillfully dodges charging Sir Urgen.
 
Sir Urgen(out of breath);
Curses, you are stronger opponent than I thought!
 
Unfred the Rogue(boastfully):
It is what it is. What you lack is finesse.
 
Sir Urgen:
The Codex demands...
 
Unfred disarms Sir Urgen with a sudden lunge.
 
Unfred the Rogue (mockingly):
The Codex? First time I've heard about such a thing. And what does it demand?
 
Sir Urgen:
How?! It can't be! Well then, the victory is yours. And now...
 
Unfred the Rogue (interrupts him):
And now, my friend, you are done.
 
Unfred stabs helpless Sir Urgen with the dagger. The nobleman crumples to the floor, choking on his own blood.
 
Sir Urgen:
But why? You scoundrel... But the Codex...
 
Unfred (carelessly cleans blood of his dagger):
No one cares about your Codex.

Book content

( . . . )

"Listen to me, boy,
Didn't Baron di Felin
Promise to arrive
Here in person?"
Marquis di Roden inquired,
His nose twitching in suspicion.

"Ah, Your Excellency,
Please forgive me, but
The Baron is indisposed",
The servant replied
And bowed at his waist.

"As an apology he sends
A bag of fine wheat
From his own supplies,
A gift for Your Excellency."

He pointed at
The burlap sack
Filled to the brim
As claimed.
Marquis di Roden
Wheezed with laughter:

"What's this?
I gut his granaries
And butcher his servants,
And yet instead of
Meeting me
Face to face
On the fields of glory,
He sends his scrawny servant
To buy me off?
Could it be
That rumors of his
Bravery and honor
Are nothing but a myth
And tall tales?"

"Once again, I beg forgiveness",
The servant's face turned crimson,
"I wouldn't dare
To speak for the baron.
Please, have a look
At the gift!
We reaped a bountiful harvest.
The golden seeds
Are asking to be ground".

Marquis di Roden
Leaned closer
To get a better look
At the golden offer,
When suddenly
Baron di Felin
Pounced at him
From around the corner.
A flash of dagger's steel,
The Marquis' blood dripped on the grain...
A worthy gift!

"And may no one,
You hear me?
No one! No one
May dare to claim
That I,
Baron di Felin,
Didn't come in person.
As for my servant,
The lie was his,
And only his alone."
