Várk swiftly landed in front of the High Tent, letting Elliot go. Elliot nervously walked towards the entrance, nervous to see the Tribal Leader again, nervous to begin this 'test.' He wondered what the battles would be, then smiled to himself. Him and Darri could kick any beast's ass, anyday. Feeling better, he turned to wait for Darishan.

Darishan slid off his chocobo and allowed it to return to the stables. This place hadn't really changed enough to inspire confidence, but Darishan was just that-- quietly confident. The necromancer went to Elliot and stood there, nodding to his companion expressionlessly.

Elliot cleared his throat, then pushed past the cloth door of the tent, speaking, "Tribal Leader? We've come to take the test to become a villager..."
------------------
Silence passed for over five minutes, then a pure white tiger made its way to the door. It sent a demonic glare at the two students before nodding its head, as if suggesting they should enter.

Darishan moved forward into the entrance, alert and wary for anything inside. His hand rested lightly on the staff on his back in readiness. The tiger seemed to be one of the less friendly of the village.

"You wish to attempt the test...?" A low voice rang throughout the tent. The Tribal Leader stepped into view, garbed in full armour complete with a stained-black sword at his side. Without any signs of magic, two sturdy chairs appeared behind Darishan and Elliot. The leader bekoned for them to sit.
----------------------------
Elliot cautiously sat down in the chair. He watched the Tribal Leader, waiting for his explaination on this 'test' they were supposed to do.

Darishan also slid into his chair, waiting for for detail. "We do," he replied simply. The people of Naut'shiner either gave this test in an overly enthusiastic seriousness... or they just had some great fun by harassing their guests.

The Tribal Leader nodden solemnly, "First, the two of you must stay one night at the Ancient Ruins. You cannot leave the area for any reason, and if you do, you can never take this test again! If you die, our healers will revive you, and you may retake the test once. You are permitted to take anything you wish to help you fight. Also, if you wish to go deeper into the ruins, there are many treasures to be found, but there are also strong beasts that could serve a large problem for you two... fighters..." He nodded, then stood, "You are to leave for the ruins now, and a messenger will come for you tomorrow, go!" He then turned and walked out of sight, the tiger replacing him, his teeth bared.
-----------------
Elliot stood up, "Yeeeeeah, so I guess we should go. Ready Várk?" He recieved a screech in return, "Okay... Meet you there Darishan?" Várk grasped his arm, then took off.
(( lmao, when I was typing the á in Várk's name, this came up at first --> 遜 . I don't even know what the hell it is. XD )

"Of course," Darishan agreed, nodding. The chocobo never really left anyway. It was a stalker chocobo. Sighing, Darishan called it out of the bush it was hiding behind and they set off for the ruins as well. The chocobo was a little sheepish after that and decided it would hide better next time.
