BELIAL v Mirage
By my verdict BELIAL is the winner.
BELIAL - POST 1
[+ 3] Prose:
One of the most beautifully written posts that I have read in a very long time. The descriptors had my mind inventing pictures that were detailed, sharp and stunning.
+ 1: emotion
+ 1: flow
+ 1: grammar
[+ 2] Ease of Read:
I am sure that it was not easy to describe Belial's magic, but I was not once confused as to what he was doing.
[+ 4] Realism:
+ 1: Creating the labyrinth to entrap them both
+ 1: Adding thorns to the labyrinth to give it realism
+ 1: Mentioning that the labyrinth casts no shadows
+ 1: Used Mirage in the post without godmoding

MIRAGE - POST 1
[+ 2] Prose:
Very well written and lovely, but I did not get a clear picture of the scene and the emotions of the thunderstorm.
0: emotion
+ 1: flow
+ 1: grammar
[+ 1] Ease of Read:
I had to go back and read a few times to understand Mirage's positioning and her actions.
[+ 5] Realism:
+ 1: Noticed the lack of shadow from Belial's maze
+ 1: Taking note of the smells of the maze
+ 1: Mentioning of Akaith and their mental bond to help her
+ 1: Turning into her dragon form instead of using her other magic
+ 1: Swooping through his maze to scare Belial as a dragon

BELIAL - POST 2
[+ 3] Prose:
I loved how you made Belial react to having his maze crumble. The reaction to Mirage during into a dragon and coming down to get him was very real, and I liked how you added emphasis on his illusionary copies of himself.
+ 1: emotion
+ 1: flow
+ 1: grammar
[+ 2] Ease of Read:
Everything was very clear. I always knew where Belial was and what was going on.
[+ 4] Realism:
+ 1: Dismay at seeing his illusion crumble
+ 1: Splitting into three versions of himself
+ 1: Taunting her with which one is him
+ 1: Taking care to pay attention to the rain and the details


MIRAGE - POST 2
[+ 3] Prose:
Very beautiful. I loved the emotion and the descriptors. This was a very well done post.
+ 1: emotion
+ 1: flow
+ 1: grammar
[+ 2] Ease of Read:
Very easy to read. Everything was very linear but still artistic.
[+ 4] Realism:
+ 1: Her irritation at watching Belial's illusions was both realistic and very well done
+ 1: Turning her dragon form into a mirage
+ 1: Very well done descriptors of how the storm and shadow changed her into a blur
+ 1: Laughing and taunting at Belial as a blur
0: I was confused by Mirage lowering her dragon's neck and closing her eyes. I did not see why that was used as it didn't not appear later on in your post.

BELIAL - CLOSING DEFENSE
[+ 2] Realism:
+ 1: Uses the rain and the blurry atmosphere as a reason to not see Mirage's blurred form was very realistic and pleasant to read
+ 1: Getting a headache from Mirage's... mirage.

------------------------------------
BONUS
[+ 3]BELIAL:
+ 1: "In the instant she claws the ground, six hooves leap away, six small figures retreating from her imposing form, six pairs of heterochromatic eyes gazing at her with dark defiance, with a cold question of guess who?"
+ 1: Continuous and lovely mentioning of the weather
+ 1: Very clear and good descriptions of the differences between Mirage and her older age and Belial's young figure and experience

[+ 2] MIRAGE:
+ 1: Clear descriptions of the difference between herself and Belial, especially in dragon form
+ 1: Continuous and lovely mentioning of the weather

TOTALS
BELIAL: 33
MIRAGE: 29
