On the next day, the next event was The Lists. The day was bright, and promising for a fight.
After a random drawing, Sir naervod was awarded a bye. The first two competitors were Plexus and Donavon Zoi. The fight was expected to be close; both were know as excellent fighters. However, Donavon's superior horsemenship secured the victory. He won the first round.
Next up was the winner of the High Joust, Sir jdd, and Prince Grandmaster. The Prince of Vanir had an excellent reason to fight, for redemption after the previous day's loss. His revenge, however, would not come yet, as jdd's superior speed upon his mount gave him a victory.
Now, naervod, jdd, and Donavon remained. A random drawing gave Donavon a bye to the finals, leaving jdd and naervod to fight. This fight was a bit shorter than the others, as jdd handily won with superior horsemanship.
The championship round saw jdd, the favorite, and Donavon square off. The fight was fiercer than everyone expected, raging on for well over 2 hours. Donavon began to show some weakness, and jdd began exploiting it. After that moment, it appeared more and more likely that jdd would win this contest as well. The end was nearing, and everyone could feel it. Finally, jdd prepared for the final charge. In this charge, he made the slightest of mistakes, so slight that no one noticed it, but Donavon. In a brilliant move, Donavon defeated jdd. The contest was his!
I award Donavon Zoi 200g.
I would also like to announce that, to even out the prize monies, I will offering an award for the horse racing event of 300g.

JDD! My hat's off to you for putting up such a furious fight! I believe your quick dismissal of me in the High Joust allowed me to keep just enough energy to win this event. Otherwise, I would have surely been had.
Great fighting, everyone!

Lancre will really shine in the Melee events... 
Congrats, DZ, although I am the best in the land with a blade, you bested me on the horse.

Octavian, if you require stats, I can mail them to you or post them here if you want. Let me know.
And Plexus: then it's good I don't participate in melee...

Sorry for the lack of competiton. I never expected so much rain...
The next competion were the horse races. The riders were to go from The Augusta Palace, to the Presidential Palace of Bavaria. The sound of a gun marked the beginning of the race...
In Bavarvia, crowds lined up on the mainstreet leading to the Palace to cheer on the incoming racers. The distant sound of hooves was heard. The crowds roared as jdd came rushing down the street, followed closely by gunning and Cyc. Suddenly, gunning caught up to jdd, leaving Cyc behind in their dust. Then, before anyone knew what was happening, Cyc's throughbred put on a hidden burst of speed, and won the competition.
I award 200g from the prize fund to Cyc of Manitou.

Thank you Octavian X. I must give the glory to my stallion, The Black Beauty. All I can do is ride him and try to help guide him in the races. I am very proud to take the Victory Lap in front of the Presidential Palace. What a great day.

The next competition was the steeplechase. The contestants lined up at the Presidential Palace at the Marillion, and the race started...
At a small shack were a respected hermit once lived on Mt. Doughnut, a judge and around 20 die-hard fans waited. In the distant, the familiar clatter of hooves was heard. Slowly, 9 figures were seen. It appeared that all the contestants were coming up, nose-to-nose.
Moments later, in close heat, Cyc came in first, Octavian second, and naervod in a close third.
I award the 300g put up as prize money by Cyc, to, Cyc.

Thank you Lord Octavian X. It feels so good to be out again, getting some of this clean Fanatikan air in my lungs. Your Steeplechase was exhilarating. Following the links up to this old shack was a good idea. I remember the hermit who used to live here, too. Thanks again.

My sincere apoligies to the contestants. My excuse? (I hate real life. 'nuf said).
With that, I'll do 4 or 5 events tomorrow.
