The gentleman is my husband, Sir Havordh (he pronounces it hav-orc), and
I will pass along the complement.  Thank you.  He's actually been back in
Atlantia for about five years now, and this was the third Atlantian Crown
tourney he has fought in.

As to his comment, I am glad you understood his intent, some did not. 
There were some people who took his "I can not hit you hard enough." to
mean that Anton was rino-hiding.  Anton was not rino-hiding, Havordh was
exausted and simply did not have enough strength left to deliver a
killing blow (let alone stand).
