Io's Labyrinth

[Anastasia]

Jetina blushes rather heavily at that, "Ah...well...."

"Yes, yes, that could work if structured right," Humming a few bars of music to himself, "Oh, and I'm supposed to fight you, if you hadn't picked up on that yet."

[Ebiris]

"Yes, but we presumed you were starved for conversation and saw no reason not to indulge first," Alicia speaks up genially. "To the death, then?"

[Nephrite]

Moore huffs. "Here I thought we might be able to get by without fighting for once and just find some alternative."

[Anastasia]

"We're supposed to, but I'm just bored of fighting. I've never liked it," The dragon admits, "Most of the others adore it, fighting for dominance, and territory. I'd rather sing, listen to stories or work on magic. Maybe it..." A trail off, "Technically, Lord Io told me to come in conflict with you. He didn't say it had to be a bloody battle, even if that was the spirit of it..." A trail off, a thoughtful noise.

[Corwin]

"A dance off will be fine," Seira voices.

[Anastasia]

The dragon makes deep hummmm sound, as if in thought.

[Nephrite]

"It'd have to be something subjective, I think, unless you can conjure some objective judges for whatever the competition is." Moore says. "Some sort of composition for a song or ballad competition wouldn't be a bad idea either... or... mmm..." He rubs his chin. "Perhaps we could simply impress you with something you've never seen before? There are a lot of things, really." Moore says. "Or even some kind of magical creation competition?" A shrug after that.

[Corwin]

"I can play the part of an impartial judge," Seira offers.

[Ebiris]

"I liked the dance off suggestion. Objective judges can be summoned if needed," Alicia chimes in helpfully.

[Anastasia]

"A song," The dragon agrees, "Moore, you can sing with the best of them?"

Jetina smiles and steps back, murmuring to Amaryl, "Moore has this."

"Really?" Amaryl murmurs right back, "He's good, but surely so is the dragon?"

[Nephrite]

"I can." Moore confirms with a smile. "What are the rules?"

[Anastasia]

"The best one according to the judges wins," The dragon says, "Simple as can be, all talent and ability."

[Nephrite]

That sounds like magic is allowed... so does that give him a benefit or a detriment? Hmm.

Unless I misunderstood the intention and it's the opposite!

"Very well, then." Moore says. "Should the song have a subject, or whatever comes from our hearts?"

[Anastasia]

"It's up to you, it's your song. Alicia, Seira, would you see to judges, please?" The dragon asks.

Meanwhile Oberuth goes to stand back, watching without comment.

[Corwin]

"I happen to be an expert on this subject," Seira notes, sitting on an empty patch of air and making herself comfortable as she prepares to judge.
