I wish Nebos would come and respond to this post with all seriousness, before Alex has time to fix the typo. It clearly refers to that lady, not Laura

The next stage is jousting with light lances, "for fun." Anyone can participate, and the duels are opened by Geoffroy du Charolais and Gautier Lalen de Charny. They clash three times, each time breaking their lances, and clear the arena for the next participants.
Zurich, who was offered a place among the noble ladies, explains the custom: before the start of the competitive battles, she can show favor to one of the knights by giving him a scarf or any other ribbon, which he will tie to his lance, and after each round of jousting, everyone will vote for the one who showed the most not skill, but valor. Thanks to her considerable intelligence, she understands that this means "who is more likable in some way"... At the end of the tournament, those who win the merciless ladies' judgment will receive additional prizes.
Cassius notices "Laura" among the noble ladies, and among his potential rivals, her father.
Sandar and Hargon can participate in the betting or simply watch the battles.

GM ran away from the drones five times for two hours each, he's feeling even worse now...

What do you mean, ran away? I thought you personally shot down the drones with whatever means available, then figured out where the control was coming from, infiltrated the enemy's rear, and caused a massacre among the drone operators.

There, 90% of the time you're running and hiding. In games and movies, it's definitely more fun.

Are you going to play some practice matches or jump straight into the qualifiers?

Go straight to the qualifying rounds if the warm-up matches don't give you anything.

What do you mean, he ran away? I thought he personally shot down the drones with whatever he could find, then figured out where they were being controlled from, infiltrated the enemy's rear, and caused a massacre among the drone operators.

Tentacles? Sounds tempting... but he's unlikely to find her across the sea. Unless it's another monster doppelganger.

– Are we running away from the Void to places that haven't yet been bound by universal despair? – Ottar laughed. – I'm in. This is interesting. When do we leave?

Better not tomorrow... Master Ghas still has a lot of valuable skills that would be worth learning...

"Who, who... Here I am, for example..." - Voldemar thought.

- I understand... And how is it customary to address her?
- But you didn't know her "from birth," did you? You met her for the first time sometime? Tell me how it was.

Maybe Ida will be impressed and give me a scarf instead of underwear...

Hmm, okay, I'll do it for a pair of underwear, a scarf will do. What if I run out of money, I can sell it to perverts.

Maybe Ida will be impressed and give me some underwear.

-- Simple -- "witch". There are many different names, but there's only one such nightmare for all the slums. I've seen it many times, although she doesn't often interact with ordinary people, praise the Void. Steph interacted with her more.

- It's very kind of you – and so human. Don't worry, you'll feel invigorated – so much so that you wouldn't even notice it on your most successful day. Cold is clearly not what our people need.

maybe skip to the next scene then.
and then she changes clothes + gets some cosmetic enhancements and heads to the battlefield

You can choose any unit from the grid.

Sandar and Hargon can participate in betting or simply watch the battles for now.
