Raymond pauses for the briefest of moments to regard Hermant:

"It seems you and I are in agreement more often than not. But enough talk, have at you!"

Hermant, already reeling from the Duke's attacks last turn, steps back and, with a crooked smile, raises his mace in a brief salute to the Duke. Then he scans to his right and sees Loup temporarily unengaged from combat. He calls out to his friend:

"Loup - take Bertin! I will hold this flank!"

**Ituralde** · 07-30-2009, 12:17

"For Saint Denis!"

Simon charges forward, lance at the ready somewhere in-between Hugues de Chamapgne and Chrisophe de Peronne.

Hugues is a bit staggered by the Dauphin's attack. He turns back to the Duc of Bretagne, who has suffered his own attack from the flank, and yells sardonically:

Attacked by a Duke and a Prince? I'm honored! Where is Raymond, perhaps Bourgogne would like to join Aquitaine and Bretagne in assault on Lorraine?

Come the three corners of the realm in arms, and I shall shock them!

Hugues chuckles and sways in the saddle. He appears to have suffered a blow to the head or he might just be drunk.

"Fancy a drink after all this is over de C'ampagne?

I've got a wonderfully full bodied mulled wine being c'illed as we carry on proceedings 'ere."

**OverKnight** · 07-30-2009, 14:42

"A fine idea Seigneur, though I could use a drink now as well."

Hugues braces for the next round.

During the brief pause in combat, Raymond turns his head to call out Gaetan de Rethel.

"Sir Gaetan, please move along! I will deal with Sir Hermant!"

**woad&fangs** · 07-30-2009, 17:31

Overhearing Hermant

I will dismount you yet, Loup! Come, you and me, un contre un.

**Vladimir** · 07-30-2009, 18:51

*A surly, sweaty de Linars exclaims*

Very soon, I will mount you all! Ha ha!

*horse bucks*

Wa-ho!

**ULC** · 07-31-2009, 05:23

Gaetan de Rethel awoke from his stupor to nod to Raymond.

"Aye Mi Lord - Loup de Gisors! Are you man enough to face me? Come, face me, for I am wounded and you are fresh, so what is to fear?"

**AussieGiant** · 07-31-2009, 07:44

"Champagne, make sure you fix me up a nice cold drink while you wait!!!"

**OverKnight** · 07-31-2009, 09:37

With a great crash Hugues tumbles from his horse. He stumbles to his feet with great effort and groggily exclaims:

Mère, s'il vous plaît ne me frappe pas avec la cuillère de nouveau!

Confused and disheveled he wanders the field until Reeves comes to fetch him. As his servant guides him from the melee he speaks again in a anxious slur:

Reeves I can't see out of my right eye! That lisping bastard blinded me!

Reeves responds:

I would not worry Seigneur, it merely appears that your helm is askew.

The Duc adjusts his helm.

Ah, quite right. Be a good man and lead me to the wine.

Hermant looks dismayed to see Gaspard fall to Alexandre's sword. He calls out to Loup:

"Finish Bertin - I will hold the others off."

Then he turns and points his mace at his enemies, slowly moving its direction in rotation from Alexandre to Gaetan and finally to Raymond:

"Alright, gentlemen - any of you think you can finish me?!"

Then he tenses for action.
