[Hm....let me think it over for a moment, and let my friends know what's going on.

Shifting forms and turning to Yarrow and Ivy.]

Okay, so.....I have to face him in an "honorable battle" to get past him. But since he only needs one opponent, it's fine for you two to go on ahead. Now, it sounds like I can choose what sort of fight is going to happen, so it doesn't have to be something physical. Any ideas?
