Before the Opening Ceremony

After the previous brief conversation, Lothur left alongside Viktoria and Annaliese, heading for one of this family's carriages.

It was time for the family to leave for the Province Conference place, an ancient coliseum in Peters City, where various parts of the competition would take place.

The Province Conference was a five-day event, beginning on Wednesday and continuing through Sunday. In it, little by little, the ranking of the local noble families would be made from the performance of their juniors.

During the five days of trials, not only combat skills were tested, since sometimes, as local history had shown, having advanced technologies was almost as good as having high-level warriors.

The Leopoldine family had experienced this in their own 'skin' when conquering the ten autonomous regions when the Three Great Lakes Region had imposed great resistance to their conquest using high-level weapons.
