Dialogue

(Approach the promoters' table)

Contest Promoter: (‍Hey there, sir — hold up a sec! The world-famous Hollow Champion Competition — doesn't that deserve a moment of your time? / Hold up there, miss — the one and only Hollow Champion Competition isn't worth a moment of your time?‍)

Contest Promoter: You move with confidence and restrained presence — clearly a master hidden among the masses. Total dark horse material for the contest!

No, I'm not.

You say that to everyone?

Contest Promoter: Ha... of course not! We Hollow Champions don't just partner up with any random nobody, only someone with extraordinary presence like yourself...

Contest Promoter: ...Just to confirm — do you have Ether aptitude?

I tear through Ethereals like it's nothing.

Contest Promoter: You're really... quite the powerhouse, aren't you? That being the case, instead of wasting your time in a laid-back place like the square, shouldn't you be joining us and becoming a champ?

I've been sick and frail since I was a kid...

Contest Promoter: That's a shame. But perhaps your friends or family would want to carry on your will and become heroes who break through Hollows.

Contest Promoter: How about I give you the rundown on this year's contest? Heart-pounding competition, the call of justice, heroes answering the challenge... Trust me, once you hear all about it, you'll be hooked.

About the contest rules.

Contest Promoter: This contest runs on a mixed point elimination system. The specific rules for advancement will be announced before the competition kicks off.

Contest Promoter: Contestants gotta hunt down Ethereals to rack up points fast, while also tackling Hollow survival challenges that knock out a set percentage of players.

Contest Promoter: And when you push through every trial and reach the final stage, what awaits you will be a true hero's journey!

Like what, specifically?

Contest Promoter: Keep a little suspense, right? After all, there's a ton of hero stories these days, and the hero's journey is pretty traditional — if we don't throw in some hooks to keep people interested, us marketing folks are gonna have a rough time...

About the event organizer.

Contest Promoter: The Hollow Extreme Athletics League, or HEAL for short — I'm honored to be a part of it.

Contest Promoter: As the officially certified organizer of Hollow combat sports by New Eridu's city administration, the League has shouldered the responsibility of restoring people's will to fight against the Hollows ever since the fall of the old capital.

Contest Promoter: That's how it should be... But since the League operates independently and is financially self-sufficient, recent tournaments have become increasingly commercialized — feels like they've devolved into nothing more than big entertainment shows for the masses...

Contest Promoter: Wait... Hold up, why am I bringing this up with you? My bad, my bad!

Contest Promoter: About top contenders.

Contest Promoter: The contest's still in the pre-registration phase, so there's no talk of favorites yet. That said, a few contestants left an impression on me with their... presence? Yeah, definitely hard to forget.

Contest Promoter: A wolf Thiren with a scar over his left eye, an elegant lady with wings sprouting from her back, and a cold, aloof figure with both hands bound...

Contest Promoter: Ah, that cold, detached gaze — the kind only the strong possess. Just a single glance from them is pure bliss...

Contest Promoter: Ahem... got a bit carried away there. Personally speaking, plenty of competitors have dark horse potential. And yeah, that includes you.

Nothing interests me.

Contest Promoter: Bottom line! We're a completely legit and above-board competition, and this year we even landed major backing from the TOPS Alliance's "Rusty Cliff Corp." The rewards are stacked — you don't wanna miss this!

Contest Promoter: If you dig what we're doing, spread the word — my performance metrics are totally counting on you!
