Another day arrives as the sun starts to take it's place in the night sky, lighting it up. A call can be heard from a house near the entrance to the village. "Up and at 'em Rav! Today's the day!". In the next room, the same wolf seen at the beginning, now five years old, slumps his way out of bed and into the dining room. "Why so tired? Isn't this the day you've been waiting for?" the same dark orange furred bandicoot asked. "You know those times where you're so excited for something that you can't sleep? Yeah, it's one of those times." the young wolf replied. "Well, this isn't a time to be in this state. Master Kentigern want his pupils at their very best." the bandicoot stresses. "Yeah, I know" the wolf lazily replies. A plate is placed on the table. A piece of toast with marmalade spread over the top, melting away over the heat. "Eat up. It'll be a long day." the bandicoot says. Without even thinking, the wolf grabs the toast and starts eating.

Now stop, explanation time. That wolf's name is Ravoka. Or at least, that's what he's been named by his adoptive father: Cirino. He's a member of the Onueo clan, a clan of desert bandicoots dating back over two thousand years ago. The clan is driven on combat, constantly training themselves to become the best fighters possible. All of this made possible through a special martial art created and taught to generation after generation. It was called Triex. The martial art pushed a combination of speed, strength and durability to disperse of multiple enemies as quickly and effectively as possible. Ravoka is part of the new generation to be taught and train in Triex. However, being a wolf amongst a group of bandicoots made Ravoka feel odd. He felt slightly turnt off at that thought, but didn't let that get in the way of his dream. Ravoka has wanted to fight for a long time now, and this was his time. His dream was that one day he could become part of the Defense Elites, a group of the villages best warriors tasked with defending the village from all outside threats.

After he was completely ready, Ravoka rushes out the door and starts running his way towards the far side of the town. Once he reaches his destination, he see's a dozen of young bandicoot's waiting outside a dojo. He walks over and finds Levis, one of the only friends he has, sitting against the wall. They greet each other and start to make converation. "So this is finally the day, huh?" Levis asks. "I guess so..." Ravoka answers. "So what do you think it'll be like?". "I've heard it'll be hard. Only half of the class will make it into the D.E." Levis replied. "Well, it won't really matter to me. I will get in the D.E. no matter what!" Ravoka exclaims. "Alright man, keep dreaming..." Levis laughingly says. A door opens. "ALRIGHT, EVERYONE COME INSIDE AND FORM A LINE!" yells an middle-aged bandicoot from inside the dojo. "Well, here we go." Ravoka says to Levis. "Right behind ya." Levis says to Ravoka. They both walk inside.
