[ Today's video finds two faces (familiar to some) sat beside each other at the corner of the kitchen table in the New Camelot household, Arthur's hands folded comfortably across the wooden surface. He's done this a million times before, though it's been awhile since his last formal address. ]
Travellers to Asgard - friends, allies, and strangers alike - a good day to you all. It has been some time since we first stepped foot on Asgard's soil, and given the recent ... changes, in population, I feel an introduction may be in order. [ A smile, cordial. ] I am Arthur Pendragon, King of Camelot, and to my right is my idiot manservant -
[Merlin leans in toward the screen, temporarily blocking Arthur from sight.] Friend. He meant to say "friend."
[ And Arthur shoves him right back into place with a hand to his face, still smiling. ] - my completely imbecilic and utterly useless manservant, Merlin. Recent times have found us in a rare period of relative peace within the city walls, giving us time enough to find our bearings and breathe a moment's tranquility.
[Arthur gets a jab to his side for his troubles, Merlin smiling all the while.] That's why we thought this might be a good time for us to hold a tournament. Well, two, actually. One for magic and one for non-magical combat. According to Arthur, the knights back in Camelot would use the tournaments to hone their abilities and keep their senses sharp - I think it's all just an excuse to bash each other around - when they aren't waging war. And, well, since we'll be expected to fight when the Giants recover...we could probably use the practice.
[ Arthur inhales deeply through his nose, shaking his head just a little, smile gone tight. He mutters something about 'should've written a damn script' before knocking Merlin's knee with his own beneath the table and grinning charitably once more. ]
Which makes it my distinct pleasure to announce the Tournament of Worlds, your opportunity to stand amongst your peers and let your abilities shine to their fullest. The tourney will commence on Day Two-Hundred and Nineteen; you have until the day beforehand to register your name for combat. Further information can be found attached at the end of this message.
Oh! And-- [He'll just be nudging Arthur out of the way again, thank you very much.] There'll be a festival of sorts outside the Arena the day before the tournament starts. The Natives are going to be setting up some booths again, and you're all welcome to join in, too.
[ ffs this time, Arthur's just going to grab Merlin's head and shove it under his arm, driving his knuckle into his scalp while grinning at the feed. ] So! Give us your best, Asgard. We hope to see the whole lot of you there.
[ And somewhere amidst Merlin's flailing and Arthur's noogeying, the bracelet gets knocked off the table to show their feet kicking at each other until they both fall out of their seats, still wrestling with each other, and the feed ends. ]

It's - [ a cough, and he lifts his head a bit. ] - a tournament, Father. We - I've had the idea floating about for some time now, and we reckoned now is the most appropriate moment for such a thing, and -
[ That is most definitely not what he's asking about, so Arthur's just going to kind of ... trail ... off at the end there. ]
[Video]
[ Really, Arthur. ]
[Video]
He was behaving out of line, so I put him back in his place. Is all.
[Video]
[Video]
[ yes, this sounds solid . . . ]
[Video]
I regret to inform you it was probably not one sided.
[ Srsly Arthur. ]
[Video]
[Video]
[ He might be forgetting it maybe doesn't matter so much but. This is still an official affair! ]
[Video]
[ :c ]
[Video]
How is the level of interest so far?
[Video]
[ Someone is quite pleased with himself atm. ]
[Video]
I supposes there are different kinds of people residing here now.
[Video]
[ for all that he's severely depressed over everything else, everything. ]
[Video]
[Video]
[ A beat. ]
I would thank you again, for your part in all this, Father.
