❝You still don't know your sin?
That in itself, is the sin.❞

Yes, a chance to do classwork was very much going to be a welcome change to the schedule thus far. But unfortunately for everyone here, there wasn't going to be that chance - not yet, anyways. Conductor Roz just wasn't that nice. "You impressed everyone here." Irina said with a wink. Now if Emma was every bullied she could use this as evidence that she was worthy of being here. Lise sidled in next to them and grinned. "I almost lost my crown!" She grinned wickedly. "I expected Irina to be the threat, but now I know now to overlook you either, Emma!" Lise was cheerful but she said something under her breath that Irina couldn't hear, but Emma certainly could. "Next time, don't go easy on me, I want a fair challenge against you!" The little blonde already saw them as sisters, the three of them, and Irina wondered how things would change once betrayal time came.
The last test involved working the legs cruelly, this one was for the arms it seemed, climbing up a rope was definitely an arm job. Irina wondered how she was going to do this - she never had much muscle strength in her arms, even as a light bearer, her best skill was finding out her enemy's movements and attacking them in ways they couldn't be prepared for, something like climbing, running, was not her style. Above all else, Irina, Rose, Prisca, she was a duelist, at her most deadly in a one-on-one situation. "Well, this look fun." Cyrus was in front of her, since they had tied. "I'll win this one, ice princess." Despite looking like a bully, Cyrus appeared to have nothing but respect for the three girls, acknowledging them as all strong. Maybe he wasn't as spoiled as he seemed.
"Three tries..." Eventually it was time. Cyrus went first, shimmying up the rope like a caveman with little trouble, but he fell clumsily and was in considerable pain at the bottom of the drop. Irina was still favoring her right foot - her left had the ball of cramped muscle right in the sole and it was painful just to walk. Whatever, it was time for the climb, she would do her best. How long, Irina wondered, would she be able to maintain her composure and poise, until she became a panting sweaty animal like everyone else here, and ruin her image as the princess above everyone? She climbed, her wrists were already hurting, this was not going to be fun.
The first attempt ended in failure but Irina didn't let it show, but she was deeply disappointed. It wasn't a slip and fall, it was an utter lack in arm strength, she just couldn't climb any higher than that. The second try went even worse, making it less than half way and this time she landed right on her tailbone, and it hurt an incredible amount. Not as much as torture, but it wasn't insignificant. The third time she tried, she even tried using her legs to hold her in place and rest her arms but she fell again, head first... until Conductor Roz caught her and tossed her roughly onto the ground, on her butt. "That's three." He barked, and Irina smiled, almost apologetically. At least Emma was able to do it. Lise was as well, looking almost like a monkey on the way up.
