The arena has completely transformed again, though instead of the lava pit, there was a large raised platform, covered from edge-to-edge in a grid pattern. In the very center of the platform was a small dais, upon which sat a singular gilded lily.
Yeonaixho was still in his private section, with Eli and Albanes, though Desmondus was gone and Petrai had returned. As the contestants entered the arena, she rose from her seat and addressed the crowd. “Our next contestants are Ren Kimura and Taisto Stenbock.”
“There are two ways to win this match. The first is to knock out your opponent. The second is to reach the Gilded Lily in the center of the area. Good luck.”
There are 2 ways to win this fight
Knock out your opponent
OR
Be the first to retrieve the Gilded Lily
To move closer to the Gilded Lily, you will have to pass through three sections, each section consisting of three d20 rolls you must pass to move through three subsections . Any roll above 20 counts as 2 subsections passed, any roll below 1 counts as one move backwards. When you reach subsection 3 of section 3 [aka subsection 9], you will make one final roll to grab the Gilded Lily.
Environmental rolls will be against grid-trap obstacles and rolled after the competitors’ turns with a straight d20.
May the best competitor win!

Taisto arrived to the arena, seemingly a little perplexed and nervous, his tail almost between his legs. He looked around and waited for his opponent to arrive.

Knock out your opponent… nah, that wasn’t Ren’s style. He immediately took off running, shouting back to his opponent as he did so.
“Good luck!!!!”

Taisto noticed the boy appear only when he wished him luck, and realized the competition had already begun. He blinked, and took a couple of restless steps in his place, thinking what to do. Eventually, he decided on a certain form.
He dropped on all fours, but unlike the other times he'd transformed, he didn't seem to shrink much. On the contrary, though his limbs seemed to become more slender, the thick fur that sprawled over his clothes made him look even bigger. Soon, a large wolf stood on the arena. Where his dog form had gentle, brown eyes, his wolf form had piercing, green ones, and its expression was stern and serious.

Ren heard Taisto drop to all fours, but unfortunately he wasn’t quite sure what that meant. A running technique maybe? Considering he felt like he hadn’t gotten too far into the arena, maybe whatever his opponent was doing was the move.
Ren took a few moments to crouch down and feel the vibrations of the arena before standing up and taking off again.

As Taisto and Ren make their way into the arena, the squares around them shoot up from the ground into giant stone pillars, hitting them both. @Morgan | Kass + Ren @Twig | Taisto + Yuga

…Fuck, that hurt.
Ren didn’t dwell on it, however, he took the hit and did his best to keep moving.
“Damn, that rock packed a punch! I hope you’re okay!” he yelled out to Taisto- wherever he was- and continued on his merry way.

The wolf let out a sharp bark of surprise and pain when the pillar suddenly shot up and knocked his side. He sidestepped and grimaced, before looking in Ren's way. He seemed to have been hurt worse.
"I'm good, are you okay?" he called out, and continued running.

Taisto didn't seem much mind in keeping this up. He was already feeling weak and aching, and his running was slower. He was considering forfeiting, when one last pillar stuck right into his abdomen, and sent him flying upwards with a loud bang.
He flew...
And landed heavily on the ground, unconscious, visible, dark cracks parting his fur across his chest.

innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) 9/15/2023 1:46 PM
As Taisto collapsed, Petrai once again rose from her seat. "Victory to Ren Kimura. Congratulations." @Morgan | Kass + Ren @Twig | Taisto + Yuga

Morgan | Kass + Ren 9/15/2023 1:49 PM
“I… won?” Ren asked nobody in particular, though the disbelief on his face was visible to anyone in the arena.
“Hey Taisto, are you okay?” he called out to his fallen opponent. “Im sure you put up a really great fight!” @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Twig | Taisto + Yuga

innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) 9/15/2023 1:51 PM
As the large stone pillars sunk back into the ground, a pair of dedicants entered the arena. One grabbed Taisto's unconcious body, the other turned to Ren. "The Second needs to speak with you. Then, you can come to the hosptial and get healed." @Morgan | Kass + Ren @Twig | Taisto + Yuga

Morgan | Kass + Ren 9/15/2023 2:02 PM
“Oh! Yeah, yeah, that’s cool,” Ren replied dazedly. “Do I just… follow you?” @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

"Yes." The dedicant led Ren away... @Morgan | Kass + Ren
