The continuation of the match between Prince Damien and Sir Niall lasted all of one lance.
Prince Damien went high on the chest plate, and the impact knocked Sir Niall far enough out of position that his lance glanced harmlessly off the Prince's shield, ending the match and sending the crowd into a frenzy as the knight lay limp on his horse.
Two unhorsing in the final round would be an incredible feat that would be talked about for ages, but after a moment, Sir Niall was up again, frustrated but intact.
"And now that brings us to our final match of the elimination rounds, Sir Charles Whitbury against Sir Morton of Bostoveria." The announcer declared.
The two took their places with grim determination, a far cry from the usually flamboyant air that Sir Charles put on. Dominic suspected that this was also part of the act, as Sir Morton had done well, but not so well that it would be enough to put Sir Charles on the back foot.
