"What kind of resolve do you have Otto? A valid question for a man about to go toe to toe with the world champion. Do you have the inner fortitude to stand strong in the face of an all-out blitz? Or will you crumble like crystal in the night?
This is the question you need to be asking yourself. I have the resolve to put you away. You saw it already. Fireside needs a strong champion. To be the face of the company requires unshakable resolve and fortitude. DO you have it in your character to be the poster boy for a company run by one of the most image conscious men in the XHF?
I don’t think you do. I do not mistake your demure demeanor for laziness. Nor is it a lack of talent and ability. But it is a lack of killer instinct. You lack the necessary components of self-realization to be a true champion.
Eternity … requires sacrifice. It begs us to be stronger than the last time we fought. Each time I go out there, I am tasked to improve and represent this company and make the world proud, make them respect this title. It is telling that you think I need tricks. Do you? My skill speaks for itself. You talk of destiny? There is no such thing, we make our own way in this world before the void.
My way? Leads to your defeat. Embrace it. Inevitable eternity."

~The light gleams in my eyes. I shift the angle of my legs on the meditation mat. The title belt shifts and reveals my own reflection. As I stare into it, I take note of the state of my reflection. There is pride in my eyes, the kind a massive achievement leaves behind. Behind that, a fire, beckoning to be allowed to proliferate. To the outside world, it would appear as if I were over excited. Understanding this inner emotion is key to maintaining my focus and turning my skills up to the next level.
Resolute.
Esmur, Fireside World Champion, stands resolute.
I wonder if my benefactor, the head of the company I now am charged to represent, is happy with this turn of events. A tag team wrestler rising through the ranks and sitting atop the ladder. If he could see the burning desire to be better, to inspire others, to create a conflagration of energy backed by iron will … he would certainly regret nothing. This belt …
This belt is a culmination of a long road. And I will continue to walk it. Otto and I will put on a show of shows, and I will emerge victorious. Inspiring him to step up and burn brighter.
I stand up and put on my belt. It is time to reignite the fire in everyone. I must be prepared … after all … eternity awaits.~
