Kes never fights against a team. He won't even fight me one on one. The only time he ever comes out is when he is WITH a team. Thou must have confused his friends for his enemies. Not difficult, the latter far outnumber the former.

I admit, that when I am only here to check in, make sure my city is running well, I often do not leave my temple. However, I do not hide there, and I can't recall the last time I was forced into a safe location or the pool, even by the teams arrayed

against me.

The reason I have 1570 health all the time, is because I am good. It is much easier to lose health than gain it, and I win far more fights than I lose to keep my health up.

I never team anyone, ever. Certainly not people smaller than me.

The only reason I even notice people like thee and the younger knights who have decided to attack me recently, is because they constantly jump on teams against me.

I never have attacked anyone who has not attacked me first.

If thou will not run from a challenge, I will always offer it before I kill thee. I do not need the element of surprise to defeat an opponent who will stand and fight.

However, if thou constantly run every time I challenge (like Kes) I will no longer do thee the honour.
