We chatted about this privately, now it's time to make it official.

Let's dance again on Twilight Isle for the privilege of being the Earth Keeper.

This challenge is valid and may proceed.

[Kruger]

Michelle,

Sincerest apologies for taking so long to respond to your invitation to dance. When I realized that we were going to have company I had the elementals start to clean up. Unfortunately the duties were assigned Dusty Ledges and Berry Muddyfeet, the place was ten times worse when they finished. We literally had to use shovels and a garden hose to get the mud out of the tower. On the bright side, the garden's top soil is already tilled. I was going to plant some silver nobles next week, see if I can grow money on trees. Maybe you'd like to stop by and get dirty with me? We can discuss the details while we work.

Tonight we saw Keeper Kruger and Mage Michelle fight for the Tower of Earth. Kruger chose to call Titan for all matches, and he and Michelle spent their bouts skipping through earth and shadow from perch to platform, raining rock and magical fury. Michelle got a small lead and held it in the first match, but soon Kruger found momentum and his first win.

The second match, Kruger built slowly to a commanding ring and supplemented his magic with his hammer. Michelle cut down his lead in the seventh round, but by the tenth he'd found his way to another win and his first defense.

Michelle has promised to return for the Key of Earth.

Well fought to you both.
