[@PaulHaynek] EDIT NORTH COURTYARD ------------------------------------------------------- The princess responded politely to the salutations she received from her peers, she then noticed Mira approach her from among the crowd. [color=fff200]"Hello Yasunori! I see you decided to participate in the tournament this year!"[/color] Said the princess. Lisia's expression grew more serious at the mention of Varjan's participation. [color=fff200]"I expected as much, indeed he is very skilled."[/color] Said the princess. Very skilled was putting it midly; despite Lisia excelling at all subjects, Varjan was nearly her equal by every bit. There was always gossip as to who was the better student. While the challenge would normally excite the young heir, this year she wanted to win, and Varjan just might rob her of victory. At the very least, the girl was familiar with her classmate's style of combat and magical application. Part of her was more worried about the outside competitors. [color=fff200]"We'll have to tread carefully this year. We'll be up against people we've never even seen before, not to mention we haven't a clue what their combat strategies are."[/color] [hr] SOUTH COURTYARD --------------------------------------------------- Hisana watched with a blank as the black armored warrior who tackled her made off with the pouch she stole a while earlier. She flipped herself back up and looked off to the distance as the man ran away, still screaming at the top of his lungs about how everyone's going to die. [color=9e005d]"That man should apologize after bumping into a lady like that."[/color] She said whilst dusting herself off, unconcerned about the pouch. It's not like it was hard to steal in the first place. Plus, having the pouch stolen from her might actually work to her favor. However, anyone near Hisana at this moment would feel a very murderous aura emanating from her. [color=9e005d]"When I have the time I should find that man. Killing him might perk my boredom. Yes, I'll gut him like a mewling pig, his blood will fall like pedals and stain the earth with red~"[/color] She said, trying her best to hide the insanity in her eyes. She then remembered that she still needed to register for the tournament. The murderous aura vanishing instantly, Hisana made her way to the tent. [@Frozen0Titan] She took note of the hooded man at the reception, she guessed he was another outside participant. But the was something about him, something that turned her on... His hidden power, perhaps? [color=9e005d]"Tell me good sir, was that screaming man who ran away just now a friend of yours?"[/color] The red-haired woman inquired to the hooded figure as her paperwork was being filled out by the elf receptionist. [hr] CITY SQUARE ---------------------------------------------------- Feeling a large claw on his shoulder, Enishi turned to see a winged woman who had the look of an official. He listened to her talk about looking for a red-haired woman and a "guy with an eastern hat". He guessed she meant him...? With a large sigh Enishi turned to speak to the winged woman. [color=00aeef]"I remember that feline guard telling me about how his friend's wallet was stolen. If you wanna know who did it, I have a pretty good idea who the culprit is."[/color] Said the mercenary. [color=00aeef]"But believe you me, due to the nature of the culprit, a stolen wallet gonna be the least of your worries if we don't stop her..."[/color]
