Torch watched as Quill was teleported out and wished her character wasn't supposed to be so reserved. He had worked so hard on [Sword Rain], and seeing it end the fight so decisively made her ecstatic. She wanted to join everyone else in the stadium and shout at the top of her lungs.

Luna was situated amongst the crowd pretending to be Liz, when she felt an ever-so-subtle pressure try to rub against her and all the people around her.
A Seeker. She could smell it.
With a mental thought to Tur'stal, she alerted her that someone was trying to spy on the competitors and smiled. Through her spiritual perception, she watched a clone of the...

The fight had gone exactly like the rest of his matches had, but in a twist she hadn’t expected, he had pushed Queen much harder than she thought possible.
Thanks to her Concept, she had known from day one that Matt and Liz...

Aster yipped a hello to Matt, but he wasn’t in the mood for her diversion. She had no reason to be feeling that bad if she had only been playing with her new best friends, as her messages had indicated. Aster had done something to her very spirit, and was now recovering.
Still, he trusted his bond, and first asked what she had done before yelling. “A...

Quill sidestepped the bear's raking claw and shot a [Jolt] at the raging monster.
The bear shrugged off the attack with an annoying resistance that it had exhibited with all of his attacks so far.
If he had his sword, he could have made short work of the monster, but at Tier 13, it was just too strong for the average spell.

Zack observed the projection of the opening ceremonies with half a mind, until the Pathers were teleported to the now much closer trial planet.
They weren't going to be making a move until most of the royals, and most importantly, the Emperor, left. At that point, moving over wouldn’t be suicidal, just recklessly dangerous. That, they could handle.
