***** Dale-Rubin *****

Rubin gave a wry grin as he saw Girion deftly deal the cards. Obviously the cuts to his fingers had done no damage to his card playing skills. Now, if only he was as passionate about chance as he was about being king of Dale...

Rubin unconsciously rubbed the place where he had cracked a rib last year, fighting through a tangle of fists and legs to drag Girion away from that particular card game brawl. Trust Girion to have accused a player who was twice his weight backed by a few fellows who were willing to 'demonstrate' their pal's honesty with their fists.

He sighed as he turned around. Like his father had said, even kings need their fun.
