Bzeczumi disengages and flies far to the east, admonishing Darius for the lack for his lack of camaraderie towards the by then ejected Firefeather.
Lenalia chases the wizard up a tree, and with some somewhat precarious purchasing, gets within rapier range before taunts and assault the mind of her foe. Immeral endures and even taunts her right back.
Vike would have none of that, and after catching his second wind, decks immeral with a giant meaty fist, knocking him from the tree. Fortunately for Lenalia, the force of the blow carried the mage just far enough not to be clipped on the way down.
Now once again, Darius finds himself the last one standing conscious on the field of battle. One point controlled still, but the enemy still held the lead for another round in every way possible.

If Bzeczumi makes a melee attack and misses, Darius will use Riposte to attack. If Bzeczumi connects with a melee attack and runs, or runs w/o Disengaging, Darius will instead make an Opportunity Attack and again apply Pushing Attack (only shoving him one foot.) If someone else closes into melee first, or if Bzeczumi is at 0 HP, Darius will use Brace to attack the newcomer instead of attacking Bzeczumi. - Riposte Attack: 9, Piercing Damage:6 + 2 - Opp. Attack:7, Piercing Damage:6 + 5 - Brace Attack:7, Piercing Damage:8 + 2
Darius gives chase after Bzeczumi in an adrenaline fueled rush, and following a blitzkrieg of stabs with both rapier in hands, nearly drops the Aarakocra from the skies.
Immeral coughs up a bit of blood as his condition gradually worsens...

Lenalia will turn to the fallen wizard and say "Words may never hurt thee, but sticks and stones seem to have done the trick!" With that, she'll skip around the corner and sing "Ding dong, the wiz is dead, the wicked wiz, the poor old wiz!" and cast dissonant whispers on Darius. Make a DC 13 Wisdom save for 15 damage and run away using your reaction. a success will give you half damage and no movement.

Through the combined efforts of a projected giant's fist, arrow, and attack upon Darisu psyche, the ex-pirate eventually falls. With that, a horn blares and signal fire bolts go out from along the edges of the arena, signaling an end to the match! Constructs and medical staff enter the arena both to stabilize conditions and escorts the defeated to the trauma ward with a backdrop of cheers and applause for having fought valiant against the odds. For their participation and experience garnered in the coliseum, Darius, Immeral, and Firefeather receive 1200 xp and 160 gp. For their performance in the arena and prior experience gained, Darius and Firefeather receive a prize token(uncommon) and advance as well to the next stage of the competition.
The Victors are meanwhile taken below to be patched up and receive their prize on the receding sounds of a crowd's cheers and well wishes!Bzeczumi, Lenalia, and Vike earns 1800 xp and 400 gp, and are ready to proceed to the next round as well!
Tier 2:
"Take any one item. We're well equipped." The room contains every item from Chapter 5 of the Player's Handbook weighing 70 pounds or less, armor of varying sizes, instruments, tool kits. There are also spell scrolls, every first level spell is present (as well as spell scrolls of a level for which a magic user of the characters new level would have slots for), and an encyclopedia of knowledge. Reading these books will grant you proficiency with any one tool kit or any one language, depending which book you choose. The books are magically infused to allow easy retention, but the magic is lost once used.
Upper Tier:
The victor may choose instead, an item from a magically infused chest that summons 10 randomly selected magic items to choose from (rarity determined by level). Alternatively they may exchange a magic item for another item of their choosing of the same rarity or lower, if the administrator has the requested item in his extensive collection. "You name it, we've probably got one somewhere."
I rummage through the chest, finally settling on the sentiel's shield.
I then walk over to the room with the three losers and turn to Immeral and say 'No problem. Besides, what's the fun in not trying to knock each other unconscious? One thing though. Learn cure wounds or healing word, or better, both. Also remember that the staff supplies you with a healing potion.'
I then turn to Darius and say 'Good job. You nearly took me out. You held your ground. You helped your teammates. One thing: Next time, I want you on my side.' I grin and high-five him
Finally, I turn to FireFeather 'Sorry if that hurt. Also, sorry that you got no time to shine. You got rather unlucky. I wish you luck and better resilience in your next match'.
I then turn to the group of them and say 'Better luck next time and remember that you have healing potoins. They saved me. They could have saved you.'
As I turn to leave, purple, blue, and green runes circle around me and sink into my skin.Every part of me not covered in feathers or my right talon is covered in what looks to be tattoos. (cannon way of getting my abberant dragonmark).
I go to Vike and Leania and say 'Nice work. See you next match?'

Irritated at his loss, Darius grudgingly accepted the high-five--he knew he'd been beaten fairly, and being sore about it wasn't going to save face among the civilized. "Sure," he said tersely to Bzeczumi's offer.
