   Summary

   A single letter was all it took. Magically enhanced, undetected until a hand touched it. And just like that, four parties of adventurers across time were teleported to a gigantic, lavish mansion to participate in a battle tournament. Winning team gets one wish and all the gold they could carry.

   Sounds fun, right?

   Little did they know it was a ploy. A plan from the hosts, those wronged by the party, to get them to weaken each other, possibly turn this fun game into a bloody warzone if the right strings are pulled.

   Will the heroes realize the trick, or will they fall victim to their fellow heroes-in-arms blades?
