Stopping a short distance from Will and Galen, the husky-headed, stern-faced Madrosc cupped his hands together and offered a slight bow as he stated, "Great Warriors, William Aladfar Oirthear and Galen, daughter of Qinaari; I am Warchief Madrosc, son of Praxa. Greetings."
Following Madrosc, the massive, gorilla-like man thumped the left side of his chest with his right hand, loudly declaring, "And I am the Great Warrior Ekon, son of Amadha!"
"It's a pleasure to make your acquaintances..." affirmed Galen, moving gracefully as she brought her hands together and lowered her head with her dragon-headed polearm still in hand.
Interrupting before Will could return a greeting, Madrosc suddenly and firmly asserted, "William Aladfar Oirthear. If you consider yourself a man of honor and integrity, you will rescind your participation in this event. It does not matter that your chances of winning are null. An outsider should not be able to participate for the right and title of Paragon."
