[Saraphim]

Narin stood in shock at the dwarf who had just swung his fist at him. Luckily, he had enough wits to dodge, but he only escaped by a hair.

"Oh, so it's a fight you want, then is it?!?" He said loudly.

Immediatly, he was at it with Lin. His fists were not used to this type of work, but he managed to give Lin a lovely black eye before he landed a punch directly on Narin's nose. Blood gushed out in a wave, but that did not stop him from headbutting Lin in the stomach.

Lin stumbled back, but recovered quickly and made Narin's vision spin from a severe knock to the side of his head.

This continued in the same fashion of trading blows and roaring curses, until Narin felt himself being restrained by someone.

It was Loni, and his restraining did not last long as he backed away when Lin threatened to break his nose.

Narin could tell that Lin had started to favor his defence. He had become tougher at blocking Narin's rain of punches, but the few hits Lin did land were weaker and had little force behind it.

Either he's weakening, Narin thought, as he attempted a blow to Lin's temple, Or he's preparing something big

He began to step up his offensive, and managed to knock the breath out of Lin with an uppercut to the stomach. Lin stumbled back, and Narin took his advantage and hit Lin in the eye.(He said later that he meant to do it, but he was really aiming for Lin's jaw)

Lin recovered surprisingly fast, but failed to block Narin's next blow. Lin stumbled back again, and prepared to strike Narin with what looked to be all his strength. Suddenly, someone stepped between Narin and Lin. Narin looked up angrily, and recognized Balin through his blood-covered eyes.

But apparently, Lin did not, and promptly hit Balin square in the face.
