R.A. Salvatore Quote

And Berg’inyon knew, too, why his brother wanted the first try at Drizzt. Drizzt had been trained by Zaknafein, Dantrag’s principal rival, the one weapons master in Menzoberranzan whose fighting skills were more highly regarded than those of Dantrag. By all accounts, Drizzt had become at least Zaknafein’s equal, and if Dantrag could defeat Drizzt, then he might at last come out from under Zaknafein’s considerable shadow.
