FINALS

Jay picks up an early two-point lead in the first fight and holds Mart off long enough to take the first win with a final score of 5-3, forcing a second winner-take-all match. In the second match, Jay jumps out again to take an early single-point lead --- but that's all he can manage as Mart marches forward and ends it with a final score of 5-1.

Mart wins the second match and becomes the winner of the All Ranks Tournament!

Duel of Swords patrons and citizens of Rhydin,

I am proud to announce that as a result of Mart's victory in the recent All Ranks Tournament, and given his station as the Squire of Battlefield Park, I will be making a donation to the Battlefield Park Wildlife Conservatory. The donation will consist of one-hundred nobles for each point Mart scored in the tournament (27) and one-thousand nobles for each victory (5).

As such, a total of 7,700 nobles will be donated, in the name of Mart Di'Luna, as soon as the Conservatory opens on Monday.

--Matt

[Lilith Anderson]

I don't know Mart but that seems like a hell of an accomplishment and wildlife is cool and shit, so I'll throw some nobles out and match Matt's donation in Mart's name. Congrats Mart, good job last night.

XOXO
Lil

Baron Simon and Overlady Anderson,

I cannot begin to express my joy and gratitude for these donations! The Conservatory is a truly beautiful place, and one I cherish dearly. I could not have asked for a greater outcome from this tourney, no matter which way you look at it!

Dearest gratitude,
Mart Di'luna
