Ignus and A'Moi

Roxy and A'Moi walked into the inn, their voices filled with excitement as they recounted their day's adventures. Ignus and Brenna listened intently, eager to hear about their experiences.

"We went to the market, and A'Moi here," Roxy said, gesturing towards A'Moi, "stood up to this guy in armor who was bullying a shopkeeper. It was amazing!"

A'Moi chuckled, a hint of pride in his voice. "Well, you know me, always ready to stand up for what's right."

Ignus grinned, impressed by A'Moi's bravery. "That's impressive, A'Moi. I wish I could have seen that."

As they continued to chat, there was a knock on the door. Ignus called out, "Who is it?"

The door opened to reveal Lori Darcrea, the innkeeper, and also Ignus's mother's aide. She smiled warmly at the group. "I have a message for you," she said, handing Ignus a letter.

Ignus opened the letter and read it aloud for everyone to hear.

"Time: 13:00 when the sun is at its highest in the arena. The rules of the tournament are as follows:

You must know magic.

Close combat skills are allowed.

Outside help is forbidden.

The tournament will be a 3v3, but if you have fewer members, you will be disadvantaged.

You cannot use any healing items.

You cannot kill anyone. If you do, you will be banished to the end of the forest and live out your days in the desert.

That is all the rules, and you must follow them. Thank you. [Signature of the king]."

After reading the rules, Ignus thanked Lori for delivering the message. "Is there anything else you need?" he asked.

Lori shook her head. "No, that's all. Good luck in the tournament, everyone."

As Lori left, Ignus turned to the team. "These rules are strict, but we must abide by them if we want to compete."

He turned to Roxy. "We need a third member for our team. I know you're hesitant, but we could use your skills."

Roxy hesitated, but Brenna spoke up. "What about me? I can fight, and it's not against the rules."

Ignus looked at Brenna, a smile spreading across his face. "You're right, Brenna. It's not against the rules. Welcome to the team."

With their team now complete, Ignus, Brenna, A'Moi, and Roxy began their preparations for the tournament. They knew that the challenges ahead would be tough, but they were ready to face them head-on, united as a team.
