Elara's POV The games were wrapping up and everyone was gathering around the main field for the grand finale, the energy in the crowd was something else entirely — people were shouting, waving their house colours, pushing to get a better view of where Mr. Logan was going to make the final announcement. This was the moment that mattered most. Everything that had happened over the past few days, every competition, every point earned, every match won or lost, had all been leading to this one moment right here. It was the kind of atmosphere that made you feel like something important was about to happen even if you already knew it was just a school competition. The noise, the colours, the way everyone around you was invested in the outcome — it got to you whether you wanted it to or not.
