When Star had gotten back to her room she immediately took off her suit and took a quick shower.
the fight wasn’t terrible, but I still feel like I was the one who lost.
she thought to herself, as she dried off her face, wings and mane with one of the towels she was given. but just she began to get settled, her gryphon escort walked into her room and smiled as he dropped a bag of bits onto her desk.
“Congrats on winning your first fight, it’s not a bad start for your name and a good way to get some exposure,”
Star stopped drying her ears and looked at him with slight confusion.
“I beg your pardon, what kind exposure are you talking about? what do I even need exposure for?”
as she sat down and began to brush her hair out he began to talk about the advantages of exposure.
“The advantage is sponsors, when you win fights you have more buyers wanting to support your name and offer you more money and training, and in some cases pay for your bail. but you must win more fights and get more attention,”
he said as he sat down beside her, and put his hand on her back as he looked at her in the mirror on her desk
“And look you hardly have any scars at all, you’re a natural kid,”
Star just sighed and sat there before forcing a smile,
I think I can keep this up for a little longer, I just hope that my freedom comes soon.
“I suppose I could keep it up for a while, when will my next fight be?”
she said as she got up and hung up her body suit so it could air out, and also put her towel somewhere it could dry as well.
“In two days, that should be enough right? enough time to train, enough time to rest and plenty of time to be mentally prepared. I’ll come back to check on you alright, just keep up the good work,”
he smiled and patted her back before walking out of her room and leaving her alone again.
your right, a couple days should be good enough for me, maybe I can send a letter home and get someone to visit me and get me out. I just need enough bits to get my stuff back, it might take a while but it will be worth it.
