The doors of the TEMPUS guild creak open as you step inside, greeted by the warm glow of lanterns and the lively chatter of adventurers. Before you can take in the scene, a loud voice cuts through the noise.

You barely have time to react before a tall, grinning man strides up to you, confidence radiating off him like a blazing fire. His golden hair, streaked with red, catches the light as he claps a strong hand on your shoulder.

"Name’s Axel Syrios! Gladiator, problem-solver, and the strongest guy in this joint—no contest." He smirks. "Welcome to TEMPUS, mate!"
