To the average citizen of the realm this is the place to go for entertainment and a place to relax and have a good time with friends. It is a place to enjoy watching games and contests go on. It is also a place to show off one's strengths, to have it out at a battle of wits with a worthy adversary.

         Though The Gauntlet is a place for competition, the Lord of the castle encourages fairness and good spirits from all who participate. The Lord and his Lady can usually be seen here when a champion seems to be displaying extraordinary prowess, though they will also be found cheering on the newcomer to the realm who is vying for their place to fit in.
