"Jackson Seraphin, I hope this reaches you well; I mean as well as can be when your loved one is robbed of what she desires. Now you understand how I have been feeling as of late.
You have robbed my beloved Viktoria Snow of her sole dream since she was a small girl, so I have decided to deny your little girlfriend her freedom.
You are at this moment challenged to a Mhanátou No'naya Shiáchi! Fighting in my stead will be my appointed Champion, Lexx Seifer. If you wish for her survival, cross the bridge to Fort Vetus ALONE, the Hollows have been cleared out, Imperia Snow."
The Mhanátou No'naya Shiáchi was an officially sanctioned duel endorsed by The Climber's Association. Each party would offer collateral as equity in the contest; if you lost, your equity was given to the victor. Jackson gritted his teeth and slammed his fist against the desk, sitting down in the chair, panting heavily.
