*You look around at everyone, feeling you've done enough to make it to the next round. You turn your attention to the dais to see what is going to happen next.*

*I stand, rapping my staff against the cold stone floor three times.*
"Well done, participants, you have completed the first round. Now, it goes to the crowds to vote on who should continue!"
*I raise my arms and the crowd cheers*

"They shall go and make a mark next to the name of the person they believe should make it through based on their skills and merit. Contestants may cast two votes per team, no more."
