The Silver Champion threw his voice towards the specters, a vein of dissapointment in his tone.
"Your champion has conceded! Now can we duel for my right to rule, or are you too high for us lowly warriors?"
His threat seemed to strike a cord with the viewers native to Stelt, who may have been different classes, but still had the same Stelti warrior honor. Of course, the threat didn't fully plant itself in the followers of The Four Sisters, for they still held onto something they weren't quite willing to let go.
Madame Mane snarls, grabbing her crescent blade. She points it at Amakka with a sneer. "You are disrespectful. I will gladly destroy you."
"There will be no blood spilt in this arena. Not today." Nightstar responds. "Fight until incapacitation, Mane. No further. You agree to these terms, Makuta?"
Whispers of supprise and uncertainty rushed through the small crowds at the reveal of Amakka's true identity. A Makuta, meddling in the affairs of Stelti leadership, fighting in this very ring? Still, those loyal to the Four Sisters probably felt something like pride, putting full faith in their Noble's abilities. It wasn't long before some of the guest clans began placing bets with the locals.

"I agree."
The fourth sister fans herself with her fan, her face still veiled. Out of them all, she exudes the most mystery, only two present in the arena bearing her crest.
The boisterous Lady Daystar begins to laugh, but not out of malice, but of mirth. "What a show this'll be! The Youngest of the Four Sisters, challenging a Makuta of all beings, and not even the one assigned to Stelt?" She proclaims, eyes glowing with delight. She elbows her sister with a grin, chuckling. "What a show, eh Vesper? After all, you are the one who enjoys these arena fights the most out of us all!" The mysterious Vesper doesn't seem to respond to her sister, but this doesn't bother the loud Daystar.
Mane jumps down from where she was. She begins to analyze Amakka, having witnessed his earlier fighting, studying his technique (Sofos, tell me it ). Mane doesn't make the first move though, simply content to walk slowly around the perimeter of the arena, analyzing Amakka.

Soft wonder and fierce anticipation parted the mouths of all watching.
The Makuta swiped one of his Type-1 protosteel blades in a respectful arc until it aligned with his core, then swished the massive weapons outward to his side with such grace, one might believe it was a bamboo rod.
"May the mightiest warrior be victorious."
In miliseconds, just like when he had dashed for the champion of the last fight, he was upon Lady Mane with one arm extending it's weapon forward and the other arm with its horizontal weapon locked near his hip. If his opponent was clever, she might recognize this move midway through his leap.

Gravity restrains the Makuta as soon as he begins to dash, and flings him across the arena. Mane uses her arm to gesture her control, spinning the Makuta around, in the air, then slamming him into the ground.

As soon as his trajectory was altered, the Makuta knew exactly what to do. He used his own power to fix himself into one position, hovering in the air like a silver angel. His muscles flexed with raw power, humming a tune of thunder as they showered sparks in all directions. The Makuta's mind also had the same strength --if not more-- when he forcibly read Lady Mane's thoughts and coming actions. Even so, he read her mind with delicate precision and natural stealth, since he preferred to keep her in the dark.
One beam of cobalt energy decedent from the clouds and circled curiously around the dome before returning. The shield of electricity collapsed soon after.
The shield is hastily raised again since it seemed to work last time.
You aren't posting progress anymore, or advancing your siege, so I'm just gonna continue our little rabbit trail if you don't mind.
KSSST!!!
All of the electricity pooled into one location and shot a jagged finger at one of the ships. This curious behavior was the forerunner to an even more powerful strike originating from the once peaceful clouds above.
It was a violent strike that left a burning trail of plasma from the heavens to the head of a water skakdi. As if by miracle, the victim survived, but when his/her memories, thoughts, ideas, and emotions were being activated and deactivated seemingly at random, the skakdi sure as Karzahni wished it had been smashed.

...and the crowd goes wild!
Mane raises a brow at his ability to overcome her gravity, but shrugs. She does not sense the mental intrusion, but even still, her mind is so all over the place Amakka gleans little from reading her mind. She dashes forward, crescent blade drawn. The lithe Mane darts around Amakka, making small incisions across his armor with her blade, far too fast for him to hope to catch.

The very second Mane drew within three bio of the Makuta, she offered his power a faster route to the ground, thus getting overloaded with ten million volts flowing through the air, through her conductive body, and then to the positively charged ground. Her senses were greatly enhanced at the unfortunate expense of paralysis, temporary core processor damage, and a stutter.

Roll D10. Result: 2. She survives.
Her already ridiculously good eyesight overloads, and she promptly mentally breaks down.
The crowd begins to murmur, confused at what had happened. Lady Mane simply screamed and fell?
OOC: I actually realized we can't do the other 3 sisters right now, since Daystar has yet to be approved by the FAC, Vesper and Nightstar I don't know what do with them yet

I assumed they kept rowing but was waiting to see if the lightning thingy went away
Wondering how on earth the lightning shield was bypassed the Skakdi panic in an effort to find out how to weather the storm. Vazrudakann has the bright idea of having all the iron, earth, and stone Skakdi attempt to create a dome around the boats and to keep rowing until landfall is made.

OOC: Then, submit Daystar, and figure out what to do with the others? I can wait.
IC: "You are fast, Lady Mane, I will give you that." In a flash, Amakka's dominant weapon flew down to meet the incapacitated opponent. It was a very accurate strike, for it succeeded in pinning her neck in place without truly touching her. The Makuta unleashed a powerful laugh as he decedent back down and the electricity in his body discharged with a crack. "But no one is faster then Lightning." There was something in his tone, however, as if he was holding some final scorn from escaping his mouth. If someone had given it careful thought, they might conclude that Amakka's early victory was an accident --that he didn't expect his opponent to charge him so blindly.

The skakdi of water snapped his head back and forth like a diseased Tahtorak. His red eyes transitioned from the standard angry glow to a purely vengeful radiance. Then his strong frame crumpled and convulsed on the ground as if he were a dried and twisted reed exposed to water for the first time in years. He unfurled his arms and legs only to draw them back in with excessive strength. Not a single muscle in his hulk would listen to the remaining fragments of now erratic mind. In a cruel finale, he straightened every limb and clenched his fists, screaming one horror filled word over and over again. "TOA!!! T-TOA!!! TOA!!! TOA!!! T-TOAAA!!! TOA!!! TOA!!! TOA!!! TOA!!! TOAGGGHHHKKKK!!!!"
KKKKRRRRRKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!
More cobalt energy jumped from the skakdi to the dome overhead, where it rocketed back into the clouds.

OOC: ...I did. Months ago
IC: None, except for Lady Vesper notice this. Nightstar doesn't seem to care, and Daystar is not smart enough to read between the lines in such a manner.

The Skakdi were ridiculously freaked out from this and all asked each other questions like "WHAT THE KARZ JUST HAPPENED?!" and "WHAT DOES IT WANT FROM US?!?!?!"

“Hey look! Ships.”

”SHIPS!!! Prepare our vessels, ready the kinetic orb cannons! Secure the bay! Send for aid!”
