well i think this 'feature' is not that bad then. it keeps things in balance, after all.

another strange thing i've noticed once (it has nothing to do with routing, but is weird nonetheless): my pretender (i think it was the wyrm) participated in the arena death match. the Messages told me that i've won. yeah. but when i viewed the final battle, i saw that my pretender actually was killed! i never knew that to die is to win. but well. i guess i still have much to learn...

the enemy used some kind of hitpoint-sucking-attack. his hitpoints grew all the time, while mine shrunk to zero. i don't know if this was the key to my victory... perhaps my hit points were poisonous, and by sucking them out, my enemy got poisoned as well. muahaha!

As pocus said it could be a problem with the rng. Another possibility is that the opposite cobatant died of the wyrms poison after the battle, if both finalist dies I am not sure what happens. Did you still posess the wyrm after the arena or where you forced to recall him?
