The Drakkarim hack at you with their deadly blades, but skilfully you turn them aside. The clangour of striking steel echoes noisily around the chamber as you parry and block their wild blows. The older and more aggressive of the two warriors recognizes that you are a formidable enemy and he pulls away abruptly, as if he is retreating from the fight. But then he signals to his comrade with a nod of his head and together they rush you, their swords held high in readiness to strike at your head.
