“ | Let’s settle it like men! In the Circle! You and me! | ” |
Settle This Like Men is the forty-second chapter of A Little Hatred.
Chapter Summary[]
The battle is hot, a great seething mass of bloodshed at the river. Suddenly the Union line breaks and Northmen begin pouring across the bridge in pursuit. That is when Leo and his reserve cavalry thunder into the fray, and the pursuers become the pursued. Leo is knocked from his horse in the chaos, but continues on to the bridge on foot, revelling in the slaughter. The Northmen are driven from the south-side of the river, and the two sides end up glowering at each other across the bridge, both fought out. Like two heroes in a storybook, Leo dan Brock and Stour Nightfall recognise one another, and agree to settle the battle with a Duel in the Circle.
