[You are in a generously sized room divided into two unequal sections. The largest half is all stone, albiet lavishly decorated with tapestries in your team color. All of them depict a lion gorged lion sprawling on a heap of mangled bodies. The floor is plain in comparison, save for your team's zodiac symbol—perhaps measuring 6 foot by 6 foot—gouged deep and smooth into the stone.

The smaller section is blocked off by a solid wall of what looks like thick, strong glass. There are no visible entrances.

Embedded into one of the walls is a large screen showing this information.]

What's this about a heart? Someone with extra protection, is it?

Well, I am.

The heart goes, the team dies. Sorry, you're new, and not exactly charming--not ideal for that.

[considers, looking like he might argue for a long moment] No . . . No, you're right. Punks will want to pick off anyone they think looks easy first.

What about one of the other strapping young men?

[glances at Ling appraisingly]

Yes . . . He looks like he can defend himself if he's got to! Good, hearty set of muscles on that one.

Already proved he could beat the hell out of me if he wanted.

Re: INSTRUCTIONS

Then he's perfect!
