Fistandantilus, I believe the incident your esteemed friend Maximillian was referring to was an attack, using voice, to sip a poison potion. In fighting Maximillian, Eldereth had noticed him using this attack, which is a fairly decent one.

He then thought for a few minutes about how best to avoid this attack. He then realized that if he simply attached a leaf rune to the potion, the next time Maximillian picked it up, he would recieve a nasty surprise in the form of an exploding potion in his face.

Given that the practical cost of a potion is rather small in this day and age, Eldereth actually lost more than maxillian, for a leaf rune is slightly more valuable than a potion bottle i'd wager.

This angered maximillian perhaps, because his attack was thwarted, but he did not simply protect his potion bottle a bit better, his first thought was to post on the bulletin board requesting a truce. A sign of weakness if you ask me.

And yes i agree that losing my pouches in a challenge would be a tad costly for me but i highly doubt if i were to lose a pouch it would affect my fighting ability much. I have many pouches.

That is of course if you could actually manage to steal my pouch. Any of them. In fact i challenge you to steal any of my valuable items. (potions excluded, i steal so many of them that i rarely bother to rune them)

ignorance full you succeed, you are quite the thief indeed and i would then congratulate me on a well-excecuted theft from an enemy.

meh silly parsing
