Calliope - Session 63

Note

Great Games Notes (#2)

(To remember everything happening during the games, so that she might write songs about it later, Calliope has taken some notes. Or, at least, she has attempted to.)


[Written after Bladderball, this note has a smear of mud on it.]

PAMPLAXIA BULLS. PAMPLAXIA BULLS. PAMPLAXIA BULLS.


[Written after the boxing.] 

Helikaon asked if I could help Bullbug in the Boxing today. He seems to have struck a real friendship with him: and I  must say I am fond of him too! I still feel... odd... about the fact that he has sworn an oath to us though, just as I did with Moxena. But, at least I know we won't abuse it... so there is that.

Regardless, Bullbug won! I don’t know that he really needed my help, for he is a formidable opponent all by himself. But I hope at least this shows that we support him: oath or no oath.


[Written after the Horse Riding.]

I can’t believe it (and I don’t think the rest of the crowd could either): Braz and Ballius, the winners of the riding! With just a little crutch song to help, of course. Braz was absolutely beaming… and I could have sworn Ballius was too!


[Written hastily in a quiet moment after the archery, but before the Dramatis Personae in the evening.]

I came second in the archery! With Braz’s help, of course. I wasn’t aiming to place really, so much as just stop one of the Praxian’s from winning. But it seems the Fates were with me: I did both! Poor Jorges… 

And this evening we get to go and watch everyone perform - this really is shaping up to be the most wonderful day!
