  "Three months of questions. Did ze burn zir career out early with a foot injury to zir dragon? Is Incandesia finally a drake too big for the Imperial League? Were Lautern fools to stake their fortune on a rookie? Well the questions are answered, Bob, Nikita Coro is a winner in the Imperial League again, in commanding style here at Karhuntassu!"

  "Ze is, and you won't see a cleaner, more professional race."

  "And here comes Lyonne Ertku to make it a Lautern one-two. Incredibly it's only the second time this year they've both made the podium, but that huge investment by the team really looks like it's paying off."

  "It does, it might be a bit late for the championship this year for them, but you're looking at a pair of champions in waiting there, Sam."

  "I wonder if Niki feels much like waiting, Bob. Here comes Feran Andoal, that's a heroic effort from Corredeira to hold off the charge from Lucia Aelschu."

  "That puts Feran only two points behind Lucia, this championship is staying super tight at the top."

  "We're all set for a spectacular final leg, that's for sure. There's Arden Markwe, keeping himself in touch still, too."

  "Good work from Arden, it's been a good showing for the smaller dragons given the course."

  "None more so than Phoebe Tenryuu coming through the final ring in sixth, that'll leave her on, what, sixty-nine points to Lucia's seventy-eight?"

  "And still only fourth in the standings overall."

  "Four riders covered by less than ten points with only four races to go. We're in for an absolute treat, aren't we?"

  "One for the history books if this keeps up."
