Evidently trying not to focus on Gates' distractions, Sinbad jumped aside and out of the way of the thrust, with a spinning counter-swing of his sword in return.

"Have at you!" Promptly, Sinbad dashed at Gates with an upwards swing of his sword.

"I've heard of him, but that's all..." Ellie replied. "I... don't see any tattoos on him," Raku mused. "Is he not a member of my tribe...?" Sinbad scoffed at Gates as he drew his own sword, uninterested in the group's chatter. "Don't make me laugh. The only thing 'destined' to happen is for you...
