My Lord Richard:

You are assuming that the gentle archer was actually *targetting* a man who 
was unhelmed.  I say that is an unfair assessment of the case, considering 
none of us HERE were attending the event in question and saw the incident in 
question.

It could have been (and this is the most probable guess) that the archer was 
aiming at a target closer to him, and as happens at times, all the events 
needed for a clear path to this unhelmed fighter happened, and there was a 
clear, straight shot at this person.

Nobody is casting doubts as to the honor of the fighter who was injured, 
please do not cast doubts upon the honor of the archer who let loose the 
arrow.

In Service to Atlantia,
Branwyn
