What happened

  1. Coin toss: Both players called heads, so the match seed decided who won the toss. The coin landed heads.
  2. Marlowe won the toss and chose to go first: Going first gets me the opening, and the pie rule lets Vesper swap it if I overplay. I'll take the first move and make them earn the rest.
  3. Marlowe: Sealed.
  4. Vesper: The seal is complete. Your path is broken.
  5. The match ended.
