You charge forward, your lance level towards Sintik!
You slam your long wooden lance against Sintik's chest, the wood nearly splintering as you deliver a massive blow that almost unseats him!
A loud, booming voice echoes from above the stands, "Good show! 10 points to Drakam!"
Sintik strikes back at you swiftly mere seconds before your mounts pass one another!
You narrowly avoid Sintik's long wooden lance, nearly careening into the seperating gate as you swerve clumsily to dodge the strike!
You ride toward your end of the arena again.

[The Blue Drake Arena]
A wide track of smoothed sand stretches far across to the other end of the arena, and a single white wooden fence serves as the only thing to separate the combatants from one another. Far above, various banners flutter atop the stands, and the roar of the crowd is nearly deafening. Deep grooves have been worn into the two sides of the track, scars of previous battles fought here.
Also here: Sintik who is astride a massive black horse with a bone-white mane and shaggy hooves
Obvious exits: none

Sintik charges forward, his lance aimed high towards you!
You narrowly weave out of the way of Sintik's long wooden lance, panting from your quick exertion!
Twisting quickly, you strike at Sintik!
You slam your long wooden lance against Sintik's chest, the force of the blow lifting him up into the air, where he lands on the ground with a harsh *THUD!*
The crowd erupts in a roaring cacophony of cheers, whistles and shouts!
You proudly ride up toward the massive box above the stands, where the lord of the ring watches the games. You raise your weapon in salute, eliciting another deafening chorus of cheers from the watchers in the stands!
A deep, booming voice echoes from the above the stands, "An excellent performance, Drakam! For unseating your opponent, I award you this prize!"
A lustrous deep golden pendant whorled with silver spirals is suddenly flung down from the stands, and you catch it!
The crowd again bursts into a resounding cheer as you circle around the arena once and then head into the stables, where the banners are drawn closed. Attendants help you dismount and remove your armor, and you head out to the registration area.
[Blue Drake Arena, Registration]
A huge banner of a sapphire-blue drake flutters between the two poles that make up the registration stand. A wizened old gent sits on the other side, rummaging through freshly-inked scrolls and engaging in conversation with the adventurers that come through when he has a spare moment. The area is aflutter with activity as clerks, pages, squires and armored combatants traverse the grounds. You also see an instructional sign and an important note.
Also here: Sintik
Obvious exits: east
Roundtime: 4 secs.
