Chapter 1: Red Block Letters.
Between forest and field a wooden "DO NOT ENTER" sign stood, each letter sloppily painted in crimson. Wind brushed past this notice, ruffling the dandelions and dewed grass of the meadow. Within the field, a hyena and a weasel played cards on a tree stump. Other animals surrounded them to observe the next qualifier of the Towers tournament.

"Take your turn, Lilu. We have, like, three minutes left on the clock," the red weasel said, adjusting in her seat.
A rush of adrenaline flowed as Lilu declared, "For the tournament! Queen of Fangs will engage in combat-"
"And I play my Instant, Reverser. Reverser stops the combat, inflicts damage equal to your fighter's Strength. Game, set, match."
Lilu's mouth dropped as everyone else cheered. "Second match, now!"
Raising an eyebrow, Rosod leaned back and said, "No."
