Novice Tournament

As I explored more of the city, I came across a monument that resembled a coliseum. I didn’t know what it was for and thought it was just another monument like so many others in the city. It was quite large, with some metal doors that, I imagine, were the entrances to the place.

Now I’m inside the coliseum, hearing people shouting outside in the stands. Damn it, why didn’t anyone tell me I’d have to fight with so many people watching?

“Are you scared, Lucas?”

Ellen, who had come with me to the locker room, was leaning against the wall behind me while I sat on a bench, listening to the noise of the crowd.

“I’m not scared. It’s just the noise that bothers me.”

“Uh-huh…”

She said, and even without seeing her face, I knew she didn’t believe a word I was saying.

“Where’s Lima, Ellen?”

I stood up from the bench.

“He said he’d be here soon.”

I started examining the large shield of Ecrom. It was an imposing dragon looking forward.
