To<br \/>\nmake things more interesting, I put up 50 coins as prize money for the<br \/>\nvictor of the match. Everyone went to their own separate corners of the<br \/>\nArena, and the tournament was begun!

Ragi and Xel put up a pretty good a fight, but in the<br \/>\nend the outcome was inevitable. Nice try guys.<\/font><\/p>\n<p>\n<font>Next we had two rounds of bouts which pitted the<br \/>\nfull Mystics (Hawkthorn, Valtrim, and myself) against the rest of the<br \/>\nassembled mystics. At first we were confident that this would be an<br \/>\neasy win, but we ended up getting beat up both rounds.<\/font><\/p>\n<p>\n<font>Afterwards, we decided that for the last round of<br \/>\nfighting we should have another free-for-all tournament. This time we<br \/>\nagreed not to use any of our &#8220;boosts&#8221; during the match. Again, I<br \/>\noffered a 50 coin prize for the victor. This time, however, I would end<br \/>\nup losing my money. After a bout of intense fighting, Neige ended up<br \/>\nwinning the boost-free competition.<\/font><\/p>\n<p>\n<font>At the end of the day we were all a bit stiff and<br \/>\nsore, but we all had great time. Tan&#8217;ki to all the healers who helped<br \/>\nus back on our feet inbetween the bouts.<\/font><\/p>\n<p>\n<font>The inpromptu mystic tournament was great fun, and<br \/>\nwe will definately have to do this again some time.
