Teyla led a small group of people onto the East Pier. She carried a small duffel bag with several pugilis as well as some cloth to clean with afterwards. There were several Athosians as well as John and his friend, Evan Lorne. She knew more were going to show up, there still needed to be things set up before the demonstration began.
Pulling aside some of the younger Athosians, Teyla started telling them exactly what was to be done. "Remember, this is not a chance to show off your skills, it is a demonstration of Dekert as a whole. Fight well, and with honor." She gave them their pugilis so they could begin their warm-ups and began setting up the mats.
