"Gollus, I don't care that you tower over me, or that you are so much stronger, I am going to make such a ruckus out here, that Gaiel will have no choice but to come out here and see what is the matter."

"Oh please Klaeb, just go away before Gollus breaks you. I am anxious to see him beat you to pulp, but I am in a forgiving mood this second, take advantage of it and leave now. Don't and Gollus will beat you badly."

"Melaidin is quite right Klaeb, and you know it too. I am going to do serious damage to you. Be smart and go home now. I don't need to hurt you to know that I can. Save yourself the agony of a long recovery."

Klaeb gritted his teeth, and pounded the broken piece of lumber into his hand. "I'm not leaving without seeing Gaiel. ANd we both know you will not really hurt me."

"Why do you say that fool? Who are you? No one would miss you if you died.And who knows, maybe that is exactly what will happen to you if you take one more step forward."

"Just one step forward Melaidin?" He scowled at her, then did take just one more step forward. "Like that?"

Gollus flexed his musles and cracked his knuckles, clearly seething in anger. "You do not talk that way to my woman Klaeb.And unlike you, I am a man because my woman did not tire of me."

"Oh you know it hun.Yours, now and always.Now go and deal with this sad excuse for a man."

"I surely will Melaidin. He is about to know real pain."

"are you going to talk about it? Or are you going to actually do something?"

Gollus snorted. "Oh anxious for this are you? Such a fool Klaeb."

He charged full ahead at Klaeb, not even stopping as Klaeb gave him a solid thwack in the chest with his lumber. Picked up in Gollus' arms, they crashed through the door. Klaeb bore the brunt of that and was dazed senseless. Gollus smiled and preceded to beat him with his own fists. "Hah, beaten bloody by your own weak hands. How delicious an insult to put upon you."

"That is enough Gollus, We don't actually want him dead. Injured will suffice thank you."

Gollus stopped. And sighed. "Oh fine Gaiel, I will let him be. He will know he was battered by me with not even a hint of difficulty, that is enough for me."

"I am glad to hear it Gollus, and Shaeg is not to be trifled with. I would hate to lose you because he saw fit to discipline you as he is wont to do."
