==== {{UL|Part Three: A Spectacle for the Crowd}} ====
'''Briefing'''

I've been told to tell you what exactly the Induction Ceremony is. 

It's not easy rising to power and fame - power in the division. 

When someone catches our eye, we run 'em through a series of fights with our toughest members. 

I don't need to participate in it anymore, of course. They ruled it unfair after I kept wiping the floor with all of our inductees. 

White ordered me to set one up, so I set one up. 

On the off chance you make it through this, [[Marauder|White]] is putting you on par with me. You're not ''better'' than me, mind you, just on the same level. On ''paper''. 

*{{green|Right, on paper. So who's up first?}}

Your first, and last opponent, is going to be Stern. If Stern is having an off day and somehow you ''win'', you're fighting that little pal of yours, Warrant. 

You'll probably beat Warrant since he's a little... 

Ahem. If you past Warrant, we have the final rounds taking place in the heart of the Magisterium. 

I kind of hope you make it that far - at least then ''everyone'' will see how you're full of hot air when you fall down in the shadow of [[Tyrant|Cole]]'s tower.

{{Mission Briefing|Type=Briefing|Contact=Warrant|Text=
Good to see you, {{Character}}, looks like you and I finally have to go toe to toe. I'm looking forward to this spar. 

I'll meet you on the top of the PPD building when you're ready.

:'''Warrant:''' Let's get on with this, shall we? I won't hold back, so you shouldn't either!
'''75% Health:'''
:'''Warrant:''' Reese hopes that this will end up killing you. Just so you know.
'''50% Health:'''
:'''Warrant:''' I know it won't, however. That doesn't mean I won't do everything I can to win, though!
'''Upon Defeat:'''
:'''Warrant:''' I knew it would end like this. Good luck, moving forward, {{Character}}.}}

===== {{UL|Attend the Final Round in Magisterium}} =====
'''Unnecessary Solicitation'''

Hope you're ready for a beating in the Magisterium, {{character}}.

{{Mission Briefing|Type=Briefing|Contact=Reese|Text=
You think you got what it takes, {{Character}}? They got a whole little arena set up for your final bout in the Magisterium. Not that I think it's a good idea - people shouldn't be there to see Riptide rip you to shreds. But Praetor White seems fine with it.

*{{green|This is me laughing, Reese. Ha ha ha. I'm ready to go.}}}}

:'''Praetor White:''' Good job.}}
{{divbox|steelblue| |Zane is DOWN! We have our victor!}}
{{NPC Text|title=Final Dialogue|text=
'''Praetor White:''' You're no longer just another member of Powers Division - you're at the top of the heap now. You earned it.<br />
'''Praetor Duncan:''' I'll have to keep an eye on you. {{GenderDialogue|male=I just love a good, unpredictable man!|female=We need more powerful ladies like us around here.}}}}

'''Debriefing'''

.... 

Well, you know something, {{Character}}. Maybe you're not all that bad.

You fought better than I expected out there. Maybe now all the other members of Powers Division will start to pick up some slack and actual ''work'' to improve themselves - like me.
