In the first round, the victors were: Gautier, having knocked his opponent from the saddle twice; Osbert Guy — both he and his rival had to roll in the sand, but the viscount won the final clash with a more precise strike; Raymond Marc — successful hits to the helmet; Nameless — after the first clash, the opponent was unable to continue the tournament; Demetius Callas — one victory on points, two mutual falls.
Second round:
Gautier vs Raymond
Osbert vs Nameless
Cassius vs Demetius

The ladies vote for the fighters — a total of six votes can be cast for no more than three knights, with no more than three points each. Abstaining is also an option.\

Hargen receives 1 silver and 2 copper. Bets on reaching the final are no longer accepted.

Well, maybe in the third clash, the winner of the first two will fall off his horse and be trampled to death. We need to consider all possibilities.
Yes, yes, that's why I reminded you about this check.

Indeed, they called him north... he is a prophet! Oh, yes... that's right... how could he forget! The squad would benefit from the help of a healer with the ability to resist frostbite. But Ottar was not very good at communicating with soldiers. And that could become a problem. Soldiers are a special breed.

– When is the raid against the northerners planned? – Blooddrinker clarified the details. – The squad consists of brave mercenaries and soldiers, I presume.

The northerners are dangerous people. They are born for battle. They can spill his guts with a couple of blows... but if the squad is strong enough, why not take the risk... at least this mission is clear. Nothing is known about the second one.
-- Almost all of them -- are from our friend's retinue, but there will be at least one more participant in the expedition. You will leave on the 7th or 8th.

Before the duel, Cassius carefully examines Demetrius’s steed. He wants to assess how much faster it potentially is than Darkness.

Gautier’s lance is adorned with tokens of ladies’ favor from tip to hilt, but he tied the Zurich ribbon over the helmet’s crest in the form of a red cat clutching a sword in its paw – now Zurich can enjoy the envious glances of his female neighbors. Demetius Callas, not wanting to be outdone by the Scarlet and the constable, tied all the ribbons around the neck of the grinning goose perched on his helmet, which gave the latter an even more absurdly fierce look, and its owner – a few harmless chuckles. The Nameless one still didn’t say a word, and Osbert, seizing the moment, teases Cassius and Raimund:
-- If he knocks out my eye, I hope you’ll stomp on him properly in the final...
-- What’s with your attitude, old man? Stomp on him yourself, get ahead of the game, it’s not that hard.
-- I’m just too old for all this, -- the viscount wrinkles his face. -- At my age, I should be sitting in a warm lodge and sipping wine, but when our regent is still in the saddle, it feels awkward to refuse the tournament.

It’s hardly faster, but it looks taller and more massive.

Gautier's lance is adorned with tokens of ladies' favor from tip to hilt, but he tied the Zurich ribbon over the helmet's crest, which features a red cat clutching a sword in its paw – now Zurich can enjoy the envious glances of the neighboring ladies. Demetius Callas, not wanting to be outdone by the Scarlet and the constable, tied all the ribbons around the neck of the grinning goose perched on his helmet, which gave the latter an even more absurdly fierce look, and its owner – a few harmless chuckles. The Nameless One still didn't say a word, and Osbert, seizing the moment, teases Cassius and Raimund:
-- If he knocks out my eye, I hope you'll stomp on him properly in the final...
-- What's with your attitude, old man? Stomp on him yourself, get ahead of the game, it's no big deal.
-- I'm just too old for all this, -- the viscount wrinkles his face. -- At my age, I should be sitting in a warm lodge, sipping wine, but since our regent is still in the saddle, it feels awkward to refuse the tournament.
- Everything has its time and place. But since you're in the saddle and can take a hit, - Cassius pointed to his previous opponent. - The lodge can wait.

Deciding that Darkness could outpace Demetius's horse, Cassius intends to aim for his opponent's helmet.

The fifth day is almost over... which means the start of the campaign is very soon.

– The Northerners are feared – they'd rather freeze by the fireplace in winter, – Ottar chuckled. – Then I'll visit you in two days, Lord Marshal. Anything else?

The word "delicate" somehow sounded scarier than a horde of enraged Northern berserkers... and if it wasn't related to her, it probably wasn't worth his attention. Although... nothing here was related to her.

Can we still bet on the winner? Then, two silver each on Cassius and the Nameless One.

- Too pompous.

- The uncle has a good thug's look, but in this pair, he doesn't look advantageous.

Cassius vs Demetrius
- It's like looking at a cursed painting in a dilapidated house inhabited by ghosts – my eyes flow from the first appearance to the second. - And what a pure, rivalry-untouched face. What a lost look, "What am I doing here?".

Having commented on the physiognomy of the participants, the Lady sees no other options than one silent one and one with a mop of hair.

Points = ribbons? Will they respawn for the final? Or are these different entities?

The Spider Queen places three points on the Crimson Knight, still not fully understanding the mechanisms surrounding her. The envy of her neighbors remains outside her attention, as this feeling is foreign to her.

They are different. A ribbon is given once before the battles begin (it can be given retroactively if needed), and it essentially serves as role-playing and influences the NPCs' votes based on the points. Points, on the other hand, are votes given after each round, and they will be summed up at the end.

Mon. points will remain as they are.

After acquiring the ribbon, Tifa hands it to a nearby lackey to give to an anonymous person:
- Give it to that soldier, let him put on a show for us, - she says to Amadeo and the guys. - What a strange custom. Is this how it's done? This image seems close to emptiness in some way. Those peacocks with dozens of titles would benefit from understanding that not everything is always achieved in life, even when they are completely sure of it, - then a head-bowing gesture addresses a silent, but obvious question to Melody.

-- No, I think this bland guy is actually the biggest show-off of them all. Everyone else is just… people, but he’s all mysterious and brooding. When you really want to stand out, but you don’t have the looks or the style… Anyway, maybe he’s a good fighter. We’ll see!
-- If he doesn’t screw up because of his own seriousness… Good choice – I like to think that he’s grinning under his helmet and blushing like a virgin when you finally notice him. -- Gunnlaug quips. -- Funny guy.
Melody is too busy picking out a new rhythm to understand this silent question... and GM is too stupid for it

Ottar bows, and then bows again.

– I serve Arran!

The commoner leaves the castle and checks the time.

Ottar returns home to sleep. He didn't drink any blood again, but what can you do... he sometimes had to go without food for weeks. Blood... it's both ubiquitous and extremely rare at the same time...
