Opt for going at it alone

Hauk looked at Misty, and then shifted his gaze to Sledge. If what Misty said about his background was true, then she hadn’t full knowledge of what level of powers a proper cleric of the goddess had achieved.
If Sledge was in fact a cleric, like Hauk, then he wouldn’t go soft. All the hells, he might collapse after a day or two, but he wouldn’t go soft.
And that would mean that both of them would walk away with 5000 in gold, apparently not a contemptible sum.

“Alright, miss Misty, I’ll accept your challenge. And I choose to go in alone.”
“Excellent!” Misty exclaimed when she heard Hauk’s response.
There were a lot of people watching them, and the news about the challenge spread through them, those standing nearest spreading everything along to the next in lines.
Before sunrise, virtually all of Gordor would know about the challenge.
“Now, I’m able to offer you a place to stay before the challenge, where you can prepare in good order.” Misty went on.
“When is this challenge taking place?” Alisha asked.
“Tomorrow, at dusk. The betters will have to have some time to gather, and both Hauk and Sledge are to be controlled by a group of wizards, to make sure that there is no cheating.
Now Hauk, will you come with us?”
Hauk saw no reason not to, and so nodded his head in compliance.

“Very good! Alisha, will you join your new lover?”
“Fine, I’ll tag along as well. Somebody has to make sure that this big hunk of prime barbarian cock-meat is properly trained when tomorrow comes around.” She shot Hauk a lustful glance.

Grabbing their clothes and weapons, Hauk and Alisha followed Misty and Sledge outside, climbing into a carriage that started of down the street.
The carriage drove them through the streets of Gordor, soon leaving the Red light districts behind them as it began to climb its way up towards the finer neighbourhoods of town.
During the journey, none of the four said more than a few words each.

Alisha and Hauk were both still naked, and Misty seemed to have no interest in making them get dressed. So, when the carriage finally stopped in front of a large mansion, the first thing the servants that came to greet them saw was Alisha’s bared appearance, as she stepped out of the carriage, followed by Hauk.

“Now,” Misty said once they had entered the mansion, “I want you to hand your clothes and weapons over to my servants. They will be handed back to you once all this is over.”
Neither of them liked it, but Alisha and Hauk did as Misty told them to do, handing over all the possessions that they had brought with them to a pair of nubile maids.

“You will now be taken to your quarters. And I’ll see you both tomorrow. Goodnight!” With that, Misty left them alone with a servant girl, Sledge following his mistress.
The servant girl took Alisha and Hauk to their room.
