“Today, my subjects, and fellow citizens of Thaloria, is the day we honor the founding of Thaloria Kingdom. That’s why I made this 115th Grand Tourney happen, to commemorate the special day. Time is gold, so let’s cut this fancy speech short, and let the Preliminary Stages of this Grand Tourney begin. May The Sovereign bless the challengers, and may the best men and women win. “
As the competitors for the preliminary jousts in the tourney lead their horses to the jousting grounds, the Crown Prince says a few rousing words to get the crowd hyped up and excited.
Humph. This tourney is but a mummer’s play, intended to disguise my true intentions. I have prepared a not so pleasant surprise at the ending feast, right after the finals. Let these fools have their games.
Crown Prince Alaric
