Challenge for the Tower of Earth

[Anya de la Rose]

It's nothing personal, Morgan. I just have this Keeper's Blessing and I've never issued a challenge before. Seems like it could be fun!

So, this is my challenge for the Tower of Earth.

[Max Lager]

This challenge is valid and may proceed!!

[MC]

Fun, you must have a strange idea of fun if you chose me for your first time in the big-leagues.

I accept, we will talk out some details soon, and remember.

Nothing personal.

[JC]

Morgan up in here acting like he's big bad when really he's a big teddy bear. Pft.

Settle down.

Love,
Noona

Tonight we had a double-feature as the Towers of Earth and Water were both up for grabs! However, I was focused on the Tower of Earth challenge, in which the wondrous Anya de la Rose pressed challenge against Keeper Morgan Chae for the coveted Key!

Match one was close, with the Keeper taking an early lead but being tied at the 2- and 4-point marks, taking us to sudden death! But with a strong defense, he took the first match!
