Season 31, Week 3
Karyl Sheeden
(Tales of Destiny)
 
The golden notes of Karyl Sheeden has carried him past a pretender. With Edward crushed, the bardic noble next has to challenge a real warrior, the grizzled Duessel. The legendary general's axe will go head to head with the delicate lutework of the blonde musician. But this bard's notes carry a truly overwhelming tune with far more offense than Duessel's old body could dream of mustering, outpacing him in damage for an immensely simple win.

Duessel has defeated the valorous young Millie in single combat! And his next contender in the DL arena is... a bard? Surely this is a joke! If the match is not called off due to its complete absurdity, Duessel will simply cleave the bard's instrument in twain, forcing Karyl to surrender the match. If he insists on fighting even with his instrument broken, then Duessel will simply use a second axe swing to down the bard. Hardly chivalrous, but it shall do!

A strong, vital general.

Defeated by a bard.

Yes, as Karyl's notes crashed down on Duessel, as he played faster than Duessel could ride towards him, Duessel was cut down by sonic dischords.

There was only one recourse left to him. Only one thing could satisfy his honor.

Karyl yawned, and sat up.

"Hey... This isn't my bed..." He added, glancing around curiously.

And saw a zombie charging him.

Without thinking, Karyl quickly grabbed his lute-mysteriously, it was laying next to him-and started up a rousing tune to defeat the undead fiend.

The zombie ran faster.

Karyl played faster.

The zombie ran still faster.

"What? Why isn't it...No!" Karyl said, desperately playing as the zombie very weakly slashed at him.

Duessel looked on from a nearby hill, and smiled.

"Ah, the uses of other worlds. An entertainer in my world can't even defeat a lowly zombie." He said, laughing softly. "He can make him get more turns, though. It's good to remind bards of what they are, sometimes. Failures." He finished, as he rode off.

Karyl Sheeden: 35
Duessel: 31
