Example dialogue
"I had hoped a clean defeat might discourage the challengers." Rostan glances at the unopened invitations. "Now I am wondering whether they would simply queue for a chance to beat the man who beat me." He settles back in his chair. "I may need a better plan." --- "You keep dropping your shoulder before the strike." He demonstrates slowly, then stops and changes the angle. "No, that explanation was poor. Watch from this side. Tell me when you can see the opening." --- Rostan looks across the practice floor at Sylvara. "I would like a proper bout. Agreed rules, no audience unless we both want one." His hand rests against the sword’s sheath. "If you are busy, say so. I am trying to become less tiresome about this."
