Eris and Nissa sat in the announcer's booth at the base of the area instead of the top. Though the booth itself was floating off the ground thanks to some kind of magic. The Thunder Dome had only been completed the week before this event was scheduled to take place. Eris was neatly tidying up her papers as Nissa was slouched in the chair next to her annoyingly drumming her fingers on the booth table. "Good Morning Ryken! I Eris will be your gracious host for this what soon will be a spectacular event and I'm joined by....uhh what was your name again?" Eris smiled awkwardly as she looked over at Nissa.
"What! Why am I even here?! Ugh, I'm your other Host Nissa, now if you could do me a favor and just get this over with already." Nissa replied in a monotone voice as it was evident the aspiring demon lord had better things to do. "So Eris are you going to tell the people and our contestants what they will be doing today?" Nissa Inquired by the tone of her voice it made it clear she was reading off a pre-written script that was put into her hands. Though the look in her eyes was pure regret for being here especially next to his human. The whole thing made her sick to her stomach and she didn't feel sick all that often.
"Oh, I'm so glad you brought that up, Nissa!" Eris clapped her hands together as the sound traveled through the arena thanks to the magical device that looked like a sound system and a microphone causing many people to cover their ears. "Oh sorry everyone, now welcome to Ryken Wipeout! We have contestants today that will be going through the obstacle course that you all see in front of you. You might have noticed a lack of snow and despite it being winter the end of winter, this stadium has been imbued with magic and other devices to keep the contestants and the audience warm!" Eris explained as she started to get a little sidetracked.
"The obstacles you bimbo," Nissa coughed into the mic trying to steer the strange priest woman back in the right direction. Nissa by this point was leaning forward on the desk her face resting in the palm of her hand. She didn't even know why she was here in the first place. This whole thing was embarrassing enough that she hoped Zolgen or Gra wouldn't see her here.
"Oh yes the obstacles, the first one our contestants will be what I like to call the Swinger, there is a set of monkey bars the contestants much run down the ramp at the start to reach. They will then get on the monkey bars and swing across the giant pool of water you see below them. If they fail to hold on well it might make for a very wet? Yeah, very wet day!" Eris stated as she smiled.
"There is something wrong with you I swear, alright once our contestants reach the second obstacle which is the Giant Red Balls....Wait who wrote this!?" Nissa shouted into the mic making it clear that she was given a script to read from. "The contestants will have to jump on the balls and control their bouncing to make it to the other side. There are five red balls meaning you will have to jump five times, well now I hope someone goes face first into the water at least it will make things interesting. After that, they will move on to the next obstacle Rock, Paper, Scissors, Ouch where we have a lovely stone golem where players will need to find the pattern or be knocked into the water," Nissa explained.
"After that, the contestants will follow the path to the hedge maze, you are going to need speed to make it out of this one. The maze will be shifting around so finding the path and sticking to it is key! After you make it through the maze, you will encounter the Checkmate, a chess game where you will get on a piece and move across the board. If you make a wrong move you are going into the water! Oh boy I can't wait to see how that one goes! Following that you have the Sucker Punch I hope you all can avoid those punches as you run across hoping to not get punched into the water," Eris explained as she set the papers in her hands down on the table.
"Wow! Are we at the end already? Well the final event is the Linguistic Challenge the more languages you know the better off you will guess the phrase. There are several letters written in various languages and you need to decipher the meaning or get dropped into the water!" Nissa paused for a moment and facepalmed. "Really who wrote all of this it's like a child made all of this up! Alright after that you got a final spring to the finish line and you are done," Nissa concluded as she let out a sigh.
As she looked over she saw Eris grinning from ear to ear. "No, I'm not saying it. No," Nissa argued in the booth.
"Oh come on, it's meant to be fun, alright now let's bring up the first contestant shall we!" Eris shouted as they waited for the first contestant to show up at the starting line.
