After a brief intermission, (more to give Sunfire a rest than herself), victorious Lady Bethany Underfoot returns to the Great Hall to face her most formidable foe yet - her old adversary and teacher, Sir James Ares Hanbro!
Both knights are looking forward to the encounter!
After saluting Lord and Lady White (and each OTHER)...
...they waste no time in getting down to business...
It instantly becomes apparent that here is a whole new level of competition!
Not only is the pace fast and furious...
...but they even find time for witty banter with the AUDIENCE!
This in NO way detracted from the heart-stopping suspense!
In fact, they had the audience on the edge of their SEATS!
And, needless to say, the horsemanship was superb!
Of course, each member of the audience had their favourite...
But as the bout continued, it grew obvious Sir James and Lady Bethany were clearly matched.
Eventually, Lord and Lady White had to make the decision...
It must have been too hard to choose!
