"Yes, tournaments and games. Would you rather they just pulled people randomly?

Rakeesh Sah Tarna, Sah Hemet, Sah Knut, you say you came to fight? Without a company at your back, how long do you think to last? The demons, as noted, are legion, and Kenabres is not."

"They?" Rakeesh sports a wry grin. "Perhaps 'they' should look to themselves and judge their fitness to decide such things."

"I have heard of companies marching into the 'wound. I have heard of whole armies marching in. I have heard of precious few marching back out again." Rakeesh arches an eyebrow. "Demons are legion. But, their greatest weapons are secrecy, seduction, and corruption. They do not need to succeed against us all, only against a few."

Rakeesh shakes his head. "No, I do not think surrounding myself with an army will make me any safer against the depravities of demon-kind. I would prefer to walk in alone... or with some few who would willingly walk beside me... than at the head of all the legions of Golarion."

Rakeesh mutters, "As though the choice were put before me..."

Ulfr scoffs at the killjoys and pushes away from the bar to join the dancing man and cat-woman. At least they knew what a tavern was for.
If you would like another dance, I can provide, it. he offers.

Glancing at Tchirash, he smiles warmly as he offers a rebuttal. "A chance to show a person's mettle and aptitude, exist, yes, but only in a specified format. As I said, there is a tool for every task, and a task for every tool. Perhaps some should march in a battalion, ready to test their might against the hordes of the Abyss, while others would not do nearly as well in that regard as they would in a smaller, sleeker force. Just an example, of course. They've been doing it for decades...I'm sure they know what they're doing." His lips turn upward even more, the sarcasm evident at the end of his dialogue.

Turning to Ulfr, he nods, taking a long pull to drain his tankard. "Aye, that would be nice, if the lady is not averse. We'll avoid the tables, though, lest our friend decide to try his luck launching milady out the window."

"Tournaments like these are for those with martial mindsets and I'm not one of them. I will watch but I will not compete. Competing when you are incapable to challenge the other players is an insult to them and their skill." Her tone was friendly, but somewhat dismissive. She herself had lived in Kenabres for all her live, which probably was a s long, if not longer than the woman before her and in addition she carried the memories of dozens of previous lives within her. Not all of them were clear and none were at her beck and call but they were all there.

"As for why I think the Riftwardens would be suitable for the job, that is simple: They have plenty of experience closing planar portals."

Ulfr chuckles and goes back to his drum. He doesn't play it nearly as hard as before (interrupting conversations isn't polite, apparently), but does drum up a lively Varisian tune.

"Sadly, accuracy is not my forte... and I'm not sure our host would thank me for embedding a cat in his wall."

She smiles at Tarren, "Beyond the tournament, for those people who wish to be noticed, it also provides hope for people that don't have a calling to fight the Abyssals. For a short period at least, they can put down work, and for a short time try to forget about the evil that lies across the river, and celebrate. Even for the crusaders, it gives them a chance to remember that there's more to life than just fighting Abyssals, and a reminder of what they're fighting for. I apologize for being too serious. There are times when I need to remember the same thing about the festival. My thanks for reminding me."

She turns to Tehina with a bit of interest, "Do you know much else about the Riftwardens? I know little beyond what's commonly known, but would like to learn more."

"On the other hand," Rakeesh said, "perhaps it would liven things back up." Ducking under Shirraj's erstwhile stage, he lifts the table, cat, and all easily overhead. He starts the table in a spin to Ulfr's drumbeat time.

"Let's see how nimbly you can dance!"

Strength Check: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23 - should be sufficient...

"I know less than I would like to know about the Riftwardens. What I do know is that both my parents were Wardens and that the group consists of many different people from many different origins. My aunt said that my mother used to talk about a Warden coming from somewhere far out among the stars." The talk about her parents brought a weak smile to Tehina's face.

"What I know for sure though is that they have many experts among them with extensive knowledge on planar transportation and portals. I for instance know that before he became a Warden my father fought against invading fiends in the Dragon Empires and there learned to shut down portals to the Abyss. Or at least so the stories go for I could never ask him myself."

Tchirash nods, "My parents may have worked for the Riftwardens, I never knew them, but the priests tell me they died in the 'Wound." She smiles a bit "But that's not exactly an uncommon story around Kenabres."
