A brave knight in shining armor meets an ancient sage. It is a tale as old time, a song as old as rhyme. All that stuff. Of course, very rarely in said story is the brave knight fighting against said sage. It also isn't too common that said knight possesses relatively respectable healing and the ability to shut out all spellcasting. Something that certainly won't make ancient sages very happy. The only chance Athos really has here is if Percival's noble nature prevails and he opts not to strike Athos. Of course, considering the nature of the League, and especially given Percival's sense of humor? That isn't too likely a situation, it seems.
