| He catches the prince and throws the man off balance and onto the floor, immediately the man rolls and stands hopefully fast enough to escape whatever hakon does next | |

| Hakon did not follow up. Honour dictating he allow mordred to stand. | |

| Mordred stands, smiling “Caught me there” once again he raises he arms and adopts a similarly reactive stance to Hakons | |

| Hakon does not reply, simply stepping forwards, feinting a left jab, then throwing a right uppercut, aiming straight for his chin | |

| Mordred reacts faster than Hakon expected and springs leftward, throw a rigt handed haymaker and using the momentum to drive it toward Hakons jaw | |

| Hakon does something unexpected. he bends his knees slightly, and turns his head towards the punch, so mordred's fist crunches straight into his brow. The thin fabric of his turban does nothing to avoid the pain of the impact to mordred's hand. In comparison, Hakon appears nonplussed. | |

| Once again Mordred backs off, shaking his hand.
A few men in the crowd behind Hakon laugh and he hears some jeering directed at mordred in Cymraic, to which Mordred simply shakes his head | |

| Hakon advances again. hands partially curled, shoulder's square to mordred, weight balanced between his legs evenly. | |

| He throws a left hook, then a right. Seeming to intend to simply rain blows until mordred is overwhelmed. | |

| The man steps back opting to simply avoid Hakon’s punches while he waits for an opportunity | |

| Unfortunately, hakon has around half a foot on him, giving him a slightly longer stride. He steps forwards and, weathering any punches mordred throws, he ducks down, planting his shoulder into his stomach, wrapping his arms around mordred's back. He lifts him from his feet, and dumps him down into the sand, his weight crushing into him as they land. | |

| Thankfully Mordred landed flat on his back, negating any serious injury though the wind was most definitely knocked out of him. *cough* “Alright” *Cough* “You win...” In amongst the coughing the prince is quite clearly laughing, and hakon can clearly hear the audience cheering his name, all of them clearly happy to see their prince defeated | |

| A fairly enjoyable hour passes with Mordred and Hakon fighting a somewhat one sided back and forth. Hakon is easily the superior brawler but Mordred wins a few rounds, not many, but enough to impress. By time they've finished both men are caked in sweat with cuts and bruises dotting their bodies, and hakon has a particularly irritating one right on the nape of his neck from when Mord drove him to the floor. | |

Hakon doesn't seem to show any pain, nor discomfort whatsoever. And as for being caked in sweat... He's definitely sweating, but seems as if he could keep this up quite happily for another hour. | |

| Mord: “Barely even a breath.. fuck, how long did they make you fight for?” The prince wipes the blood from cheek and motions for one of his men to bring the pair some water as Mordred’s bodypaint has started to run, revealing a series of burns down the left side of his body. Nothing too horrific looking but they’re obvious
