Dropping Out

[Zook Murnig]

I would like to drop out of the tournament. I accept the judgment made by Santhalas, but I must concede to Atzar Kellon as I will not be able to keep up with the tournament, and he, doubtless, will provide more interesting battles in future rounds.

This has been discussed with Atzar, and I would like him to know that if he loses the next round easily, I will personally hunt him down and slaughter him in his sleep.

[Atzar]

I'll stand by whatever decision Santhalas makes on this subject. I lost, so if he considers me out of the tournament then so be it; but if he believes that I should go on in your stead, I will be more than happy to do so.
