Thakk will follow and listen to the halfling. He keeps to himself and stays to the back of the crowd that is gathering around her. Sizing these people up, he wonders when his next chance to get in the arena will be. He glances at the dragon again.

What an honor it would be to battle such a magnificent creature. Some day I will have my turn, he thinks to himself.
 

Maleficus was stunned a little, perhaps for a about a millisecond after being addressed, "So, you mean-all those who wish to view can watch other arena fighters in combat?" All the while, he thinks in his mind, I suppose this game then will be a bit tougher than I had imagined, oh well...

Maleficus eyes the demon as well as the rest as the cleric answers his question, then says, "I'm quite sorry, pardon me, I forgot to introduce myself...My name is Maleficus the Mage, but you can simply call me Maleficus, or Mal, or whatever you perfer." The halfling smiles broadly before continuing, "I'd like to take the tour as well, if you don't mind."

Alise shakes her head "My you newbies certainly have many questions, don't you.. You are much more detail-oriented than most who come through here.. That should serve you well." She smiles and then begins answering your questions as she walks towards the largest 'exit' in the courtyard walls.
"The store deals in Gold, just as most Prime Material stores do. If you currently have a non-gold form of currency, They'll be able to exchange it for you easily. And there are many forms of gaining money, such as winning battles, which usually will get you a prize from the Watchers.. or Elders or Greater beings.. whatever you want to call them, I've heard many names for them. ANYWAYS, that was off the topic. Aside from prizes, some people bet on battles taking place, though I personally dislike the habit and don't participate in such things." She says with a slightly disdainful sniff.
"You could also enchant items, if you are good at such things, and sell them to the store.. they're always willing to buy new magical items. And there are probably other arrangements you could make around here to earn money from others. I've been offered money by people to make sure I save healing for them once they come out of the battlegrounds, and I know some who have asked for enchantments to be placed on them before they enter the battlegrounds.. Though finding someone to do it for a reasonable fee is often quite a taxing endeavour.

The only people I'ld advise you to stay away from are the DemonLord.. you saw him on the throne.. and his followers. The rest of them are either fairly weak or more-or-less honourable.

In your quarters, once you have established yourself, the Greater Beings will leave a paper telling you when your next scheduled battle is, what type of battle.. single, team, or free for all.. and who the other participants are. Whenever you return from a battle, you will find a similar piece of paper detailing the next battle. On another note, feel free to leave anything you don't wish to carry with you in your quarters, the Greater Beings make sure they are very safe, and nobody can get into or out of them without the permission of the rooms rightful inhabitant.

You can, of course, challenge people to a battle if you become angry at them, want to test yourself, or just become bored... if you ever feel like fighting, just find someone who's willing to fight you, and go to the battlegrounds. There is usually a free room.
Of course the Greater Beings don't reward these un-scheduled fights with prizes, so if you want some form of monetary reward for them, I'ld suggest working that out with your opponent before hand.

And finally, YES any who wish can watch at those screens a combat that is going on. I don't know why, but I do know that there are several beings who do so regularly.. to keep an eye on the abilities of the opposition, you know, or to keep track of a battle that there are bets on."

She finishes speaking and looks around as you approach the largest Arch (all Doorways are open arches except for individual beings quarters, which are simple wooden doors.) "Are there any other questions or would you like to go inside and look around before we move on?" She asks with an air that says she has done this countless times before.
 

"well, I'd like a look around, but I can always come back later... What do you guys want?" Corlon asks to the other "newbies" in the group.
 

"Well I'm for moving on and establishing rooms and visiting the store," Durindal said. "Granted, I don't know how much use the store will be, unless we received gold for the matches we were just in. Perhaps it's noted at the store or elsewhere."
