Prologue

Hawke didn't know why she had agreed to fight the Arishok, of all the people she could choose she just had to choose him.

But there was no time to think about that now. All she had to figure out now, was how to win without getting herself killed.

She jumped to her left as the Arishok swung his sword at her, and she then swung her own sword at him to cut his side. But he was quicker than she thought and he blocked it with ease.

Hawke jumped back and out of the Arishoks reach. How in the world was she going to get a strike in at him, when he was that quick? Before she could think more about it, the Arishok attacked her again, and she ducked just in time to not get her head cut off.

Then Hawke was left with the opening she was waiting for. So as quick as Hawke could move she jabbed the hilt of her sword into the side of the Arishok with all the power she could.

When the hilt of the sword connected with his side, he swung around to strike at Hawke with a growl. Hawke dodge the attack and put some distance between herself and the Arishok. She looked at him and smiled. This was the way for her to win against him, if she could just get through his defends then she could use her own speed to strike at him.

Her eyes locked with his and she could see fury in them, but then there was also something else in his eyes. She just couldn't put her finger on it.

Hawke was about to attack again, when a strike of lightning nearly hit her. Where did that come from?! She looked at the Arishok, but he was looking around them as if to find out where the spell came from. There was another strike, this time it was aimed at the Arishok, who moved out of the way just in time.

Then Hawke heard someone yell at her.

"I'm sorry Hawke. I didn't mean to interrupt your fight!"

Hawke turned around to see Merrill standing there with a sorrowful look on her face.

Of course it was just typical Merrill to do something stupid like this. Hawke didn't have time to answer Merrill back, because she was nearly cut in half by the Arishok. Then when she dodge him she was nearly hit by the lightning again, which didn't seem to stop. The Arishok attacked her again and Hawke blocked his attack with her sword. She could feel all the power behind his attack, and she could feel her arms hurting from the impacted.

Then there was a lightning hitting right beside them, and it threw them both into the room beside them. Hawke kicked the door close to prevent another lightning in hitting them both. The lightning hit the door and the impact of the hit send Hawke flying into the Arishok who was behind her.

She felt the pain from when she hit the Arishok, and the last thing she saw, before everything went black, was the room that was starting to collapse down on them.
