Ser Patrek Florent may be tiring, but still formidable and highly skilled with the sword, him against Ser Vardis and Lord Jaime is considered an even match given his current state of fitness, and while Lord Jaime does get in a few good blows, it is Ser Patrek who seizes the initiative and forces Ser Vardis out of the competition, most might think that Lord Jaime must soon follow. They would be wrong, the sly old Lord of Cider Hall knows a few tricks learned over a long career on the tourney circuit, finding openings where there one would not expect any to be exploited.
