It all ended according to the rules. Zin lost, and Adam won, and both fighters survived.
Still, Es'aha felt terrible about what she had done. Now that it was clear Zin had survived, there was no excuse for her actions.
Es'aha bit her lip before bowing low before Adam, despite the difference in their statuses.

SLAP!
Kaerno's palm landed on Es'aha's arse with a sharp smack.
"Ouch!" Es'aha yelped in shock at Kaerno's rudeness. They were both the Fingers. They weren't supposed to act like this! Never!
"What the hell are you doing?" Es'aha exclaimed, rubbing her back.
Kaerno chuckled. "Come on. Who needs your apologies? Adam understood everything from just one look at you. Am I right?"
Everyone turned to him.
"Sure. I get it. Apparently, Zin means a lot to you, right?"
