""Aletha! Aletha! Aletha!" Chanted the audience as she panted and sored from the victory.
(Did… Did I do it?) The sea of faces roared its approval, with an old man holding a trophy standing next to her.
After the race, Aletha and the others gathered around the podium with the audience running to her, reaping the rewards given.
Phthonus, Pridia, Alai, and Emine gave Aletha a high five. Emine, who had looked drained, whispered to her as she gave her a charming thumbs up.
"I knew that you could win." Emine said as she applauded with the audience. "I gave you the victory because I knew how important that locket meant to you. I could have won and saved my family. But I figured how important this race was to you."
Following the shower of praises and the pile of Gincoins, the old man gave an amethyst-like locket to Aletha in reward for her service.
