You take a seat by Moonflower’s side, and lean against her lightly, a yawn escaping your muzzle. You tell her that monsters are going to have to wait until later.
A few minutes of snuggling and smalltalk pass before the echoing voice of the announcer returns.
Announcer: “Alright, ponies! It’s time for tonight’s grand finale! This round, our finalists will all be dueling each other for a share of the prize pool of two hundred bits! The more matches a contender wins, the more bits. Are you ready?!”
Over the crowd’s excitement, Gerwalta the Gladiator and Raindancer are called into the ring first. Under a storm of illusory sparks, the two polearm wielders offer an impressive display of weapon mastery, but in the end, the griffon proves to be the strongest.
In the next match, Tonsoria follows up against the winner. Depsite being quickly outmatched by her aggressive opponent, her optimism never seems to falter.
The last match of the night pits Raindancer against Tonsoria. The two ponies offer a spectacular final battle, which the unicorn ultimately wins.
With one last round of cheering and stomping from the crowd, the three finalists return to pose victoriously, and receive their rewards.
Announcer: “Whoo! Congratulations to Gerwalta the Gladiator, Tonsoria, and Raindancer, and thanks to everyone who came out here tonight! We hope you enjoyed the show, and we’ll see you again next week!”
