Jonathan was testing over the trodden dirt like a strutting horse when he saw the rainbow-colored armor before hem. He was entranced and the whole world seemed to stop. He lifted his visor of his plumed help. He stared at the unknown knight. His 12-year-old squire, Tegger held the reins of a white seed bread for battle.<br/>Tegger cleared his throat, "Master, you horse is ready, Sir."<br/>No reply the squire repeated then followed the gaze of Sir Jon as he was known. He eyes fell upon a small framed knight the most beautiful adorned armor. The boy turned hos head as King Atrious stood from the royal platform. His daughter Amanda was seated to his right and Lord Lyons to his left. Atrious stood and raised his arms at his sides. The crowd hushed.<br/>His voice carried loudly over the arena and up the spectators on a hill, "Welcome Lords. Ladies, citizens of the realm and shires, what a beautiful Summerfest Tournament Day.  This is our 23 event and our brave knights have traveled all over Atria to test their bravery and skill. I hereby pronounce this year's Summerfest Tournament Open."<br/>The cheering crowd stood up and chanted Long Live the King Atrious over and over. As the Arena Master Sir Alex, swords trainer and blacksmith for the shire limped to the center of the arena.  Alex held his out and turned his back to the spectators and faced his king and bowed lowly as voices fell quiet, "Your majesty, Princess Amanda welcome to Wildwood Shire."<br/>Both King Atrius and Princess Amanda nodded. Atrius's, voice carried, "Thank you Sir. Arena Master you may begin."<br/>Alex placed his left hand over his heart then turned faced the crowd and lifted arms at his sides, "Welcome my Lords, Ladies, fellow knights, and ladies, and gentlemen, it my pleasure to preside over this years Summerfest Tournament. These are the rules my word is law. Any cheating or killing unchivalrous conduct in my arena will be and punished and expelled from the tournament.  The point have been set for a max of 124.

The winner of this years Summerfest Tournament will receive $300 gold, a place at the high seat at all banquets for a year, and a choice of favor and dance with Princess Amanda or Lady of their choosing."<br/>The crowd cheered and whistled.<br/>Sir Alex motions to the two knights ready to place ring on a polearm get in place and exited the arena.<br/><br/><br/>Jonathan blinked and shook his head when the crowed cheer and Sir Alex spoke. He was curious to know who the name of the knight that held his attention. The tournament had begun and he drew lot 4 the knight before. He was going to speak the strange knight but they were asked to move to the opposite side. Jonathan wondered if he would face this knight first? Judging by size he thought he have the upper hand.
