This event is for all races, and for 16 teams of 2 players over level 15
Hrothwig studied the tanned hide pinned to the wall, and fanned the newly
inked names with his hand, trying to dry them faster. "Hmm…so now we have two teams for the Final, Grumthag. The Elements of Magic and Wind have their Champions, now we need to find those that will represent Water.”
Grumthag paused in the act of brushing the mud off the Captain’s boots. “Each contest throws in new challengers, sir,” he commented.
“Yes, that’s true. Maybe this contest will hold a surprise and some newcomers will win the day.” Hrothwig tapped the chart thoughtfully and then turned his back to the wall, his gaze falling on his second. “Be careful, Grumthag! Those are my best boots and I want them looking good for the next contest!”
