Mystery Introduction:

The tournament was in full swing. The crowd could not have been more drawn by the current spectacle. The Knight and reigning Champion had both been knocked off of their horses at the first strike of their lances. Another twelve minutes into the most intense sword fight and the champion had his sword over the disarmed Knight, who was lying on his back. All of the sudden a crossbow bolt pierced through the Champion's neck, causing him to drop his sword and straighten out as he hit the ground, dead.
