Speaking in Faendryl, Schalyne says, "But I suppose the less they know of our actions in the embassy, the better." Speaking in Faendryl, Lylia says, "Provincial thinking abounds even in the Argent Mirror's shining city, it seems." Hypolita adopts an agreeable expression. Lylia nods at Schalyne. Speaking in Faendryl, Lylia says, "Agreed. I should have been more...discreet." Lylia smiles quietly to herself. Lylia hugs Xorus, who wraps her in a warm embrace.

[Academy Nexus, Palestra Arena] Built in an outside area of the academy, the arena is surrounded by a wall of clear energy that rises into the air, joining at a central focal point and creating a shimmering dome. Several passageways can be seen behind the magical barrier. The ground of the area is covered in multi-hued cobblestones. There are no adornments or obstacles that can be seen except random areas that are blackened or discolored. Obvious paths: out Edanthiel looks thoughtfully at Arku. Raethir nods slowly at Arku.

Several guards enter a private booth across the arena. Speaking in Faendryl, Alasatia says, "I wouldn't put them through that." A figure in shimmering robes enters the same area and takes a seat, his form shrouded by his guards. Speaking in Faendryl, Lylia says, "True. We do not want them all to perish in fire."

Lylia smiles quietly to herself. Alasatia gingerly pats her hand along the top of her head and gently smooths her heavily textured hair into place. Speaking in Faendryl, Livius says, "Well, hopefully this will be an even better show tonight, given the audience." Mourne nods in agreement at Livius. Speaking in Faendryl, Livius says, "Not that last night's was lacking in any way." Blade Schalyne just arrived. Speaking in Faendryl, Lylia says, "If the last trials were any indication, it will be quite a showing." Livius grins.

Alasatia walks over to the seat and settles down. Brutish appears less battle-ready as a soft glow dissipates from around his form. The warm glow fades from around Brutish.

Some attendants begin to rush in and pull out the fallen. Raethir nods grimly. Lylia nods. Speaking in Faendryl, Arku softly says, "They had it defeated, but for that one cast." Speaking in Faendryl, Lylia says, "As Lady Allereli noted, one must never ignore the void, even if it seems the lesser threat in the heat of the moment." Livius nods in agreement at Lylia. (Lylia sniffs the scorched air.) Arku agrees with Lylia. Speaking in Faendryl, Lylia says, "...so to speak." Speaking in Faendryl, Schalyne says, "A lesson to be sure." Blade Schalyne just went west.
