sixteen ♞
[Having to fight his own brother -- how cruel were they really? And as gladiators, there was no telling what winning or losing would mean. Death hung everywhere he looked. He could read the fear in other men's eyes. Agravaine didn't fear death like most men, having faced it once before. What he did fear was having to take Gawain's life.
Geb was the first to go, taken down by Gawain as he stood there idly, feeling entirely stupid. But when it came down to the two of them, they both held back, not wanting to harm the other. It was a ridiculous dance, and once Agravaine had had enough, he met Gawain's eyes and flung his sword down at the ground. If their fight wasn't enough to guarantee freedom, he was going to cut some throats.
No matter the grudges he held, he wasn't going to kill his brother. No one was going to force him to do that, as long as he could help it.]
