บท 160: 158, dare you not know my name? (Asking for the first monthly ticket of May)

Charles had, after all, worked in the Fars Empire's Central Government Office for two years and was familiar with the various official procedures of the Empire.

Being quite cunning, he prepared three copies of a duel letter "with legal effect" and had sent someone to Mostar Fortress in advance to request Lady Southseraph and the Augusladin High Priest act as witnesses for the duel.

The Duchess and the High Priest gladly signed their names and sent the document back, and only then did Charles send the duel letter to Cyrus's camp.

Cyrus made a few changes to the letter and suggested a third witness, Vigo, a Sacred Order Knight of South Ceraph. Charles didn't mind, agreed to Cyrus's amendments and the third witness, and once all the documents were in the hands of the concerned parties, the formalities of the duel were completed.
