Ragnar is the first to charge the mountain of a man. The bandit swings his axe and it connects with Ragnar's shield. Ragnar holds his ground with a grunt digging his feet into the ground some. Bradi yells "Go!" to Frizzlar and they charge in, not a care in the world. Bradi tries but fails to slice into his leg. He notices her and kicks her back. Frizzlar goes in for a stab at the bandit's torso, but the bandit also spots him. The bandit takes Ragnar by the shield and throws him at Frizzlar. Frizzlar drops his spear to catch Ragnar. This bandit was giving us the work.

I cast heal on the three of them one at a time. Then I cast life drain on the bandit and prioritize the healing on Ragnar. He is the one taking the brunt of attacks. The bandit seems to notice my spell and starts to come after me. I'm so fucked. I start running away because if he gets his hands on me, in the words of Porky the Pig. "That's all for now folks." He is faster than me, so he starts to gain ground quickly, however, I make sure that I am running towards the other three.

Ragnar is the first to spot what is going on. He rushes in taking out the bandit's legs. The bandit suddenly finding himself could watching. He spots Frizzlar's attack coming in and manages to catch his spear and snap the end off. He stands up, with no weapon and starts to fist-fight Frizzlar. Brandi still disoriented from the kick earlier that put her to sleep tried to help but couldn't walk. I cast cure mind on her to heal the concussion. It only took my attention for a brief second, but when I turned around, I seen the bandit already folded Frizzlar's clothes with Frizzlar still in them. I again cast cure mind to help Frizzlar.

The bandit had turned back his attention to Ragnar and the both of them smiled at each other enjoying the fight. Ragnar put up his shield and sword. I get the feeling that he enjoys a fight with fists far more than a fight with weapons. They start to circle each other while Bradi, Frizzlar, and I watch, ready to jump in at a moment's notice. The bandit was the first to swing throwing a jab at Ragnar's face, and Ragnar leaned his head to the side dodging the blow. He closed in and punched the bandit in the dick. The bandit groans. Ragnar tries to punch him in the gut but gets caught by a kick. Ragnar blocks the kick with his arms but is still sent sliding back. Ragnar starts to shake his arms and hop up and down clearly pumped and having fun. Ragnar and the bandit start to fight again, the bandit tries to kick Ragnar, but Ragnar catches the kick and tries to bring his elbow down on the bandit's knee. The bandit manages to break his leg free from Ragnar's grasp. The red-haired dwarf clearly enjoying this far too much.

"Ye know I haven't had this much fun in a fight before." Ragnar told the bandit.

"Me neither I don't want this fight to end, but I know it has too and I will be the one on top." The bandit replied.

"Before we continue may I ask your name?" The bandit asks.

"Ragnar. ye are?" Ragnar replies.

"They call me Ox." Ox replies.

With the pleasantries out of the way the continued the fight. Ox tried to punch Ragnar in the nose, but Ragnar grabbed his arm and threw him over his shoulder. The bandit again finding himself on his back. Ragnar closes in only for the bandit to get up with what can only be described as a spinning kick. Ragnar took the kick directly on his abdomen grunting in pain as he now found himself on his back. This time it was Ox's turn to try and close in for the kill. Ox ran towards the downed Ragnar only too be kicked in the dick for the second time. This time however I seen blood start to seep through his pants. Ragnar made a testicle explode I'm guessing. It makes me wince in pain just imagining what Ox is feeling right now.

Ragnar manages to get up while Ox is distracted. He tries to charge in at Ox, but even with the bleeding testicles Ox notices. He manages to punch Ragnar in the gut lifting Ragnar off of his feet. Both lay down in pain. Ragnar unable to catch his breath, and Ox still weak in the knees. We wait a few moments to see if we would need to finish the job but are baffled when they start to laugh.

"I haven't been hit that hard in the stomach since I was but a wee lad." Ragnar said.

"I haven't ever been hit in the dick twice. I think one of my nuts is done for." Ox said.

"Should we just call this one a draw?" Ragnar asks.

"I think so, but will the others let me live?" Ox asks, and rightfully so.

" They will, I want you to indulge me if you will Ox." Ragnar says.

"What might you want me to indulge you on Ragnar?" Ox asks.

"Stop being a bandit and walk a better path, become an adventurer so we might meet again, not as enemies but as friends." Ragnar said.

"I'll think about it. If I do I'll let you know. I am wanted here, but if I decide to change careers I will travel to Kiso to the west." Ox said.

We walk over and help Ragnar up. While helping him up Ragnar asks a favor of me.

"Tyber can you heal his nut?" Ragnar asks.

"I don't know what happens if he attacks us again?" I ask.

"I won't. Your friend has beaten me. I accept this loss. Few things in this world I adhere by, but a fist fight always has a winner and loser, and today I was the loser." Ox said.

I thought about it for a moment then decided that I wouldn't want to live the rest of my life with only one testicle, so I healed his. That would be a fate worse than death. He got up and started to walk towards us. All of us got ready for another fight, but he held out his hand to Ragnar. They shook hands and the bandit vanished into the tall grass. Just as he vanished, we returned to the caravan and continued on the trip.
