Oh, well. Eesh. This time it was as if the Confundus charm had hit them both, and they had both lost their wits. Mrs. Rowle's wand merely twitched in her hand as if contemplating a drop to the floor and deciding against it; and Rowan looked so bewildered she may as well not have noticed it happen. Some good she would have done in a real duel. Tyb, with a grimace, cast a Finite and weighed up the results, finally giving Mrs. Rowle the point.

"Let's go for a tiebreaking round – Mrs. Rowle, if you please." Hopefully they would try and end on a high.
