"By rights, only those who registered here beforehand can come, but who can resist your handsome young friend? The girls here all favor such men. You may participate, but you still have to pay the registration fee.
A participant can bring two friends into the venue, and the registration fee is 20 Crowns, which I know is quite steep. However, I keep only 20% of the total registration fees as a commission, and the remaining 80% is distributed among the four semifinalists in a 1:2:2.5:2.5 ratio. Of course, the champion can also earn that rare Roder Card as a reward. Once you win, it's much more than just 20 Crowns."
The 20 Crowns registration fee, converted at the current exchange rate, amounts to nearly 250 pounds, making it quite a significant fee.

Shard was taken aback:
"Isn't that..."
