vs. Garde Manger


So, Arthur, how say you? Who will be your champion, and who shall he face in the Challenge?	My man, Sir Lancelot, stands for me in all challenges. And he will face your Garde Manger!

Very Well. Fetch hither Lady Mac, my Champiõn du Leftovers!	So the lines are drawn, the arena chosen, the warriors prepare...

Lady Mac of Roo has mastered the art of Kitchen Resource Management, mostly from cleaning up after her partner, Lord Fireball.	Sir Lancelot enters the arena with a 347-2-3 record. Some of it near food preparation!

Let the challenge begin!	FOR THE HONOR OF CAMELOT! Eeek!

WHOA! WHOA, there Tex! This ain't that kinda challenge.	What? Oh, yes. Cooking.

Yeah, now, go into that kitchen and see what you can find, and what you can do with it.	Mmm. Yes. I can whip up a Whatcha' Got Stew....

Now, rather than going shopping for what we want, we're going to look at what we have, and see what we...	Hasan Chop!

AAAAAAAIIIIIIEEEEE!	Ahaha! She ran away! I win!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?	WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

Tildy, I thought you disarmed him.	We did. Except for the medical aid he needed for his sciatica.

A double-edged medical aid, with a tang and a pommel?	Yep. These crazy humans, you know?

What were you thinking?	It was self-defense!

WHAT?!?	She was coming RIGHT AT ME!

HER BACK WAS TURNED!	Oh. Um... She was reaching for A KNIFE!

She was COOKING!!	Er, uh, oh, Spam? Spam, spam, spam, spam...!

NO IN JOKES! This is SERIOUS!	I'm sorry. I should have realized. Shall we start again?

I must choose a new champion. Who of my warriors seeks to face the Foe in possibly mortal teflon-lined combat?	::The horde considers....::

Anyone?	Anyone...?

LANCELOT WINS IRON AGE CHEF!

Aftermath:
Arthur and the elf king forged a lasting peace, based on the humans winning the competition and not demanding any tokens of tribute from the losers. Of course, within the caves and tunnels of the elves, Lady Mac's treatment at the hands of the humans fueled a growing resentment. This undercurrent threatened to poison the relationship between the two kingdoms, until Tildy, feeling some slight remorse over the whole 'back support' error, suggested a solution: that Lancelot be completely disarmed. Completely. If you know what I mean. Everyone thought it a just and amusing punishment to levy (except Lancelot, of course), and after a short, spirited scuffle Lancelot's first and very favorite sword was presented to Lady Mac of Roo. High spirits ran throughout the caves (although no one wanted to eat at Roo's for quite a while afterwards, just to be safe) and The Peace was secured. Lancelot was completely healed by the World Famous Cleric after their return to Camelot, but he remains known in most of the elvish lands as "Lancelost" to this very day. As a bit of trivia, the Nor'west Elfclave's nickname for him is best translated as 'Lancelittle.' Rumors flourish suggesting a reason for this difference, but no one is sure.
