The Thirtieth Trial

Who: Trial players
When: Day 63, morning
Where: Trial zone

[The trial zone doesn't exactly appear to be inthe best shape. It's the ruins of an old building, something once grand, perhaps a castle, with a strange statue of sorts with six spheres leading to a large seventh on a pedestal. It's possible t see a forest beyond the walls, though find a way out to that seems impossible, and plants have overgrown almost everything.]

[On the statue's pedestal is an inscription:
Three tribes that brought a storm,
Winter brought them to task.
Eventually things would become warm,
What in return did springtime ask?
]

[Not so far beyond it appears to be stairs leading down into the earth. And to the side of that is a throne.]

[And on the throne is....someone new in Senna colors? Though perhaps the hair is enough of a give away. Though those with a keen eye may yet notice she's still wearing her geode still, with the distinctive cutie mark still on it.]

[She's lounged across the throne, legs kicked over one side, elbow resting on the other, head in hand.]

I'm bored. [And she offers a grin that has a dangerous glint to it.]

How about we play a game?

Ah, there's that inferiority-superiority complex again.

I did it before.

Depends on if the stakes are interesting.

But I was not at my best. Now the tables are, well...

As for the stakes, what do you say to explanations?

Not your best, but I'm also better than I was then. Still doesn't say good things about your odds.

Explanations as to what?

Are you truly better? Or are you deceiving yourself?

Why you are the way you are, and why I am the way I am.

Well, I have all my unicorn magic plus a number of things I couldn't do before.

So yes.

[Considers.] All right. At least the parts I know, this place did trigger the surge so obviously I only know so much about that. Can't pick a brain that isn't present for answers.
