[color=A0A0A0]"It would be acceptable to take up the Order's banner for the tournament,"[/color] Fleuri answered.  [color=A0A0A0]"Some in the audience may find it confusing to have multiple knights fighting under the same heraldry, but so long as you fight well and give them a show, you should be noticed regardless."[/color]

"Speaking of noticing," Fleuri continued, his gaze turning towards another soul on the hill, "It appears we are not alone."

It was a grey-haired man, clearly a foreigner.  Judging by how similar his clothing and sword was to Rui's, the man was probably from Akitsushima.  If Fleuri had to guess, the stranger had come here for the tournament.

[color=A0A0A0]"Greetings, stranger,"[/color] Fleuri spoke, approaching the stranger and bowing in the manner that he had learned from Rui.  [color=A0A0A0]"I presume you have come here for the tournament?"[/color]  Fleuri was never one to pass up an opportunity to interact with fellow competitors before a tournament, especially those whom he had never met.  He didn't always get the reaction he anticipated, but with a little creativity, one could make something out of even the worst first impressions.
