" Tira told Tika as she watched the fight. "I can guess your questions. This challenge is as serious as it gets. It will end when the loser submits, o... is unconscious, or is dead. If I lose, we will have to move to Paginna's territory, or I will have to challenge for another one. None may interfere until the challenge is done."You will record the fight with your screen. I will tell you more before the fight. Now let me study her." With that, Tira gave her full attention to what she was. They did need to pick up an extra backpack, bedrolls etc. For himself, he picked out his brigandine jacket, sword, dagger, longbow and crossbow. He would pick up a crossbow for Stephanie.After spending the rest of the day gathering enough supplies for months on the trail out and back, they spent the night at one of the better inns. In the morning they loaded up two pack horses each, saddled their riding horses and hit the trail. The packhorses were loaded light and at least one each would serve. He looked around, even in the dark, hiseyes picked up details of the room from the night before. It was nolonger sparsely decorated. Now it had a couple of tables and chairs,colorful paint on the walls and toys piled in the corners. There werestreamers hanging from the ceiling and a cake with candles on the table.He could tell it was the same room. His extra senses assured him ofthat, but the changes in decor seemed to go beyond mere dressing. Thisroom had a different history than it did when. The front was less revealing than Claudia's dress but it was evident that she was also braless. She wore black thigh high stockings with the seam running up the back of them and a black thong. In the right light, you could see the G-string and her ass through the dress. Her brunette hair was fixed tight to her head with a sleek French twist in the back, exposing all of her neck. Her necklace was made of thick blinged out rhinestone that came to a point inside her cleavage. Her earrings matched.
