Bout 1: Aldreda vs Limanda
Aldreda was favourite in the betting, but not by a lot. Aldreda eventually wins after a long pounding fight that lasts nearly an hour. No penalties requires in this one, and the winning payout is 9:7
Bout 2: Jorrah vs Golden Mercury
Not much betting in this one, and ends up with quite long odds on both sides. During the course of the fight the golem Jorrah appears to come alive, and ends up only narrowly losing to Golden Mercury. However, the look that she gives Isaac once she is led off to be tied to the poles to pay her penalty is deadly. Winning payout odds was 9:1
Bout 3: Damara vs Fox
Extensive betting on both combatants, and also significant betting on whether there will be a fatality in this fight. The fight itself goes on far longer than any knife fight normally would, before finally ending when Damara has run out of reserves having been nickle and dimed away with wounds, and finally cannot block a gut skewering stab from Fox. Damara goes down and the healers are fast enough to save her life. The payout on the win is 4:1
Bout 4: Olga vs Guðrún
Huge betting on Olga. Initially it looks looks like landslide betting on Olga, but finally some bets start also coming in on Guðrún, and that starts moving the odds in on her a bit too. Once the fight starts, Guðrún comes out in all-out attack mode, closes with Olga and refuses to let go. Olga’s tactical and speed superiority is effectively nullified by having Guðrún hanging onto her and just pounding away, and Guðrún eventually wins it. The payout is 5:1
Bout 5: Ebony vs Corvinne
Massive amounts of money bet in this one, and the favourite ends up being Corvinne at 66:100. In the actual fight, within moments Ebony is left naked, and Corvinne is left holding the entirety of Ebony’s outfit, which appears to have only been held on by velcro. However, Corvinne crushes this into a very hard tight ball, slightly larger than a baseball, and throws it, hitting Ebony on the head with it at over 140 miles an hour. This then sets the tone for a bout where Ebony is faster, and has deeper reserves, but just cannot make up the difference of the fast that Corvinne’s hits are just so much harder. Ebony eventually surrenders.
Bout 6: The main feature.
During the preparation for this bout, Random reveals that his two women with him are wearing Gold and Jewelled bikini tops worth roughly 10 million each, and he is putting them both up as bets on this fight. If someone will match his bet then one of his girls will be taking her bra off to fund Random’s buy in to a high stakes Texorami Hold’em game to be played directly after this bout.
Isaac and Lucius both buy in immediately, then Corwin and Bleys do. Then Caine and Fiona buy in. Dara and Ganeida buy in, deciding that going to watch Chippendales is not do interesting after all. Gérard buys in, Graeme Helgram III buys in. Osric and Harmon both buy in. Edward buys in, putting the poker table at 140 million.
However, it also means that most of the elder amberites are now out of cash and can’t bet on the final fight. Lots of other people do though, and there is lots of side betting too. The odds end up with Team Discordia evens, Team Callista has got 7:5 odds. Favourite for last woman standing is Deirdre at evens. 1:5 odds on Lydia first girl down. Favourite for second girl down is Chenney 2:3. 100:1 odds for Lydia as last woman standing. Victor bets Elisabeth 10,000 that Deirdre will be first girl down. Bill holds the bets.
Lydia goes pheremone crazy, secreting an aphrodisiac and taking on Chenney, for whom the actual shapeshift conditioning gets broken to the point that she grows back her dick and starts fucking Lydia uncontrollably.
Deirdre tries to get to Callista first but Savannah sacrifices herself to take thathit, so Callista is free to take Thais instead, and that one doesn’t last long. Thais is first girl down.
Savannah is not as good as Deirdre, but is not so much worse that she can’t hold on until Callista can come to help, and then they double team Deirdre out of the fight. So Deirdre is second girl down.
Lydia tries a desperate move to use psychic dominance to try and turn Chenney against he team mates, only to discover that Chenney also has a Goa’uld symbiote, in the form of a daughter of Aphrodite, which is aiding Chenney massively in withstanding both the sexual attack and the psychic attack. Lydia sees the writing on the wall, and with her own battle failing and having lost the other two team mates, she submits.
In Random’s card game, Bellindar ends up sacrificing her bra to get the game started (who is surprised that t wasn’t Vialle doing that?) and then Gérard is first to lose out after about 3 hours. Lord Jonathan is out next. Then Caine loses out, then Lucius, then Dara, and then Ganieda loses out. At this point Isaac withdraws, about 3 million up. Graeme Helgram III also withdraws at 1 million up. The game goes on and Osric loses out next. At this point Edward pulls out about 10 million up. Then Corwin loses out.
So we’re left with Random, Bleys Fiona and Harmon in the game. Much to everybody’s surprise, Random loses out next at the 6 hour mark. And then it goes on. 8 hours in and Bleys loses out, Harmon and Fiona agree to end the game, both ahead, and Fiona takes Harmon off for a discussion.
Team Discordia suffer for 6 hours, including some brutal treatment of Deirdre by Callista herself. Chenney is restored to being Connal Chanicut, but Duchess Juno tells him he’s banished from the House. Team Callista depart with Harmon at the end of the night, and Team Discordia retire to the fast time healing and recovery facility that was provided to prepare for the wedding tomorrow.
