Ascalon Academy (PvP Battle)

The Ascalon Academy is the central training institution of the Ascalon Army. Its main building has two distinct clock towers. Access is gained by talking to Sir Tydus and fulfilling the requirements.

When you first arrive you take part in a four on four Player vs Player battle to teach you the basic skills of PvP. Winning or losing does not matter, you are allowed to proceed regardless.

It is possible to explore the northern portion of the map where you will find the open fields east of the Academy where the training takes place, complete with targets, weapon racks and even a broken catapult. Tents and a review stand are available so the intructors may observe in reasonable comfort.

After the match you are sent on a mission to help Prince Rurik.

Dialogues
Initial speech, identical for Haversdan & Warmaster Grast.
 * "Welcome to the Citadel. As Sir Tydus told you, we are about to lauch a new offensive against the Charr."
 * "If you're going to fight under my command, I want to see how you perform in a real combat situation first."
 * "In just a few moments, we'll open this gate and let you fight another group of brave, young Ascalons."
 * "Don't worry. We have healers on hand to make sure you'll all live to fight another day. Indeed, if you are struck down, expect to be resurrected in a matter of seconds."
 * "Fight with honor, my friends. For this battle, it will not matter whether you win or lose."
 * "Any questions?"

Initial speech, by Drill Sergeant Mahoney. (Mahoney runs to the isle at the side)
 * "This is the Arena, Recruits!"
 * "There will be no surrender! If you die, we have shrines to resurrect you and send you back in!"
 * "I want no cowards! You have two minutes to gather more kills than your opponents, so you'd better not hang back."
 * "My judgment will be final! Now get out there and fight!"
