The heat has returned with a vengeance on the third day, the sun rising in a cloudless sky and the overall feel of the day feeling more like summer than spring. Hot, bright, and merry - it's almost a shame that the vast majority of the crowds are here for a competition instead of merriment.
The critics had almost seen what should have been a statistical impossibility. The skeptics were starting to sweat. And the Games fanatics were lamenting what could have been instead of what was. For three out of the four combatants with Leon Krigel's blood flowing through their veins had triumphed, had prevailed, had secured themselves a spot in the top four. But though two of his children had prevailed and a cousin had likewise advanced, out of what could have been the answer to a guaranteed Krigel victory instead found the most unlikely of sources emerge the victor - a no-name warrior from an island home who had unequivocally named himself the dark horse of the tournament as the first to knock one of District Four's golden children out of the tournament. The odds of a Krigel victory had gone from twenty five percent, to fifty percent, to seventy five percent - would the day end with the triple digits, or a dip where there had only been rises?
If the first match of the day were for those drawn by the curious, the lovers of the rags-to-riches storyline, the second was the one that critics and Games enthusiasts alike were salivating over. Ever since it was revealed that three of the sixteen spots in the tournament were to be held by Leon Krigel's offspring, more than a few had wondered just which of the triplets was the most superior. The answer to that was not, perhaps, Arie, the girl who had gotten herself beaten by a no-name boy from the islands, but who it was still remained to be seen. And as memories of the Wolfe siblings from the Sixty Second and the Keeni twins a year afterwords stick on the minds of a few, while the more sadistic wonder what a fight in the Games with no holds barred between the siblings would look like, the vast majority settle in for the show. Screw the finale, this was going to be the highlight of the tournament - a duel between the children of the District's golden boy victor.
This fight consists of Leonidas Krigel (Dars) vs India Krigel (Zoe)
