Round 2, Battle 6.

"Milord" Galahadron vs Sir Orvald de Martelam

The battle began with a successful attack by Orvald, which dealt serious damage to Galahadron but did not throw him off balance. Instead, he struck back hard. And only his armor saved Orvald from instant defeat.

While Orvald retreated and recovered his health, Galahadron followed him in some unusual defensive stance. But it seems the Knight of the Golden Tower had figured out the Golden Coin's tactic, and instead of attacking, he kept retreating while quaffing a potion from his flask.

Having thoroughly enjoyed his opponent's failed attempts to catch him, Orvald finally stopped and made a sharp but unsuccessful swing at Galahadron. But if his first attempt missed, the next one ended in the defeat of the Knight of the Golden Coin.

Note: This is the first time I've seen a melee knight flee from his opponent like an archer. But if it worked, then he did the right thing.
