It's a large-scale mock battle between the rival houses that takes place every year.

Its scale is incomparable to the mock battle we fought during the Great Tree Moon.

It will take place in the vast Gronder Field. That is in Empire territory to the southeast of Garreg Mach.

Whichever house defeats the most opponents wins.

Well, usually. Professor Manuela is being prudent. She will not be participating this year.

Since his long-time rival will be absent, Professor Hanneman has also declined.

Oh, don't worry about us. You know you wanna see the kids in action.

Thanks to all of you. But I'd only be a burden out there. My students don't need to see me collapsed. Well, not on the battlefield, anyway.

Correct, we will not be participating. Regardless, do not expect victory to come easily. Or at all.

Well put. We've spent the past few months pushing our students to their limits. You can see me in the infirmary after they destroy you.

Oh my, look at you. If you're as confident as all that, my students will walk all over you.

We have taught our students well. There is no need to hold back. Challenge them with everything you have!
