I've got a bad feeling about this - almost as if this archery tournament is all just some shrewdly crafted plot to capture someone who has thus far successfully eluded all efforts of the Therengian law to capture him or her. It's almost as if after failure upon failure of all other means of capturing this person, who also happens to be widely regaled as the best shot in all of Therengia, the state is relying on the tragic character flaw of ego to lure this person into what is, in reality, their demise.
