Green and Gareth both waved goodbye as Kat started walking to the stares, pondering the fact that she'd been able to call Lily a princess. *Odd. It only occurred to me after I said it that I might have been stopped from saying it… but it still worked? Is it because I wasn't thinking of her as a literal princess but as someone precious to me? Is there a saying I don't know that's allowing it through? Might be.*

"How could teleportation not be practical in any way?" asked Lily confused. "Surely there's at least some good it could've done,"

"And she won't just tell you what his real name is either," grumbled Lily. "I only know it because I can see into Kat's head,"

It was grating on their minds. Nixilei was struggling to regenerate more mana then the bare minimum because she couldn't slip out of 'combat mode' long enough to meditate. Asteodia wasn't doing much better because she had to keep focus on the path ahead to make sure they didn't hit anything, while keeping the bird in the corner of her eye so she could see it should it attack. If it was just those two things maybe it would be fine but Asteodia had to keep an eye on her hands, lest they start shaking. Shaky hands combined with turbulence was not what anyone wanted.

"That's assuming we make it the full two hours," said Nixilei, hoping the slight waver she heard in her voice wasn't noticeably to the elf. "My mana reserves are only just now recovering, and it won't be at maximum speed because of the awkward spot I have to sit in. We've still got most of the two hours left, and I'm sure your mana isn't full either,"
Fantasy · Vongrak
*Well now. That's an interesting perspective. I'm not sure that really would ensure a tie… but at the very least I'm willing to go along with it. Not sure if I'll try to ensure I get first place or not. I won't fight for it if Asteodia doesn't, I think.

Though in the end, I guess I'm just not willing to say any of that aloud. Kress has been a lot better lately, not with me really but with everyone else. I'd hate to start picking on him and have him go back to being an ass to everyone that wasn't me, or one of the guards. At least he chose to do this on a day he wasn't competing. Heck, worse comes to worst he doesn't have to compete tomorrow either so it will be fine. Just… hopefully he doesn't look like too much of a slob.*

"Ah, one final thing. The last ring in the sequence will be quite obvious. It will look like it's made of wood and held up by balloons much like the platform you're all on now. It is not actually made from balloons, it's just an illusion. So Kat won't be able to see it, but she can't participate so it doesn't really matter. Now are there any questions?"
Fantasy · Vongrak
"However not so for Kat and Lily. This is because Kat participated two days in a row, and thus wouldn't be eligible to participate today regardless of the fact that they were banned from the events. That means, by extension, Kress definitely won't be participating. So it will be up to Gareth, Green and Nixilei to carry the day on that team. Now, are there any questions before I explain the events? Any decisions to contest?"
Fantasy · Vongrak
"Now… on to the bad news. At least, for two of the teams here. Kat, Lily and Romilda. You three have been banned from todays events, entirely due to the fact that you can all fly. Of course, Marigold, Kress, Borgick, March, Stan and Blue aren't allowed to participate either because they participated in events for three days in a row, but that's another matter really. Now, due to Romilda being banned from the events of today, Borgick may participate in one event in her place…
Fantasy · Vongrak
"You may also realise that I have yet to ask for who is participating in which event. That's intentional. Today, I'll be giving you a brief description of all three events, and then you can sign up as each event starts. So now pressure to get the full lineup decided now, even if that might give you some benefits.

*It's really weird that the beastkin have the government most similar to our own, and one we might be tempted to argue for… but here it just doesn't work out. Or at least, it causes issues with the other nations.*

"I'm not sure I count as having a gender, but sure I'll go first," said Mint with a nod. "Right… well I think this is a really cool idea and it's nice to look at from a whole bunch of angles. That said, I feel like picking a castle as the base for the idea is a bit boring, I'm thinking six or seven? Do I need to actually pick one? Heck, I might bump my scores up a bit if the last two aren't any good,"

That's not to say Marigold was exhausted, far from it. Her body was trained exceptionally well, and if this had been a more normal volleyball game she could've outlasted everyone by a huge margin. The issue was, she'd been taking over a lot of Carl's work, and she was slowing down. Just a bit… but that little bit was adding up. Blue sent her running around the area, over and over, keeping the elf on the move. Marigold had returned the ball thousands of times at this point. It was a monumental effort… but it just wasn't enough.

Her score came up at 9,8,10. *Ok, that confirms that six is enough spins.* Green moved towards the cannon for her launch and had to fight back a grimace as Vanya whispered something to Bonas. Green entered the cannon and let out a long sigh. "Grrr, I think Vanya knows how to get those final few points. I… I just don't. It's not worth risking my points for this. I think… if, IF I can manage a good enough splash, alongside the yell, I can lock in first place. Just… just have to do this all right,"
