Gagaruna 	Greetings and welcome to the Pugilists' Guild!
Gagaruna 	We pugilists are specialists in hand-to-hand combat. Through rigorous training, we forge devastating weapons of our fists and feet, which we employ to great effect in battle.
Gagaruna 	There is no better place in all the realm to train in our discipline than here. If you would walk the path of the pugilist, I highly recommend you add your name to our roll. What say you, friend?
 	
Gagaruna 	That is truly a shame. I could see you doing quite well among us.
Gagaruna 	Should you have a change of heart, I invite you return here.
 	
Gagaruna 	Hmmm... Looking closely at your physique, it would seem you are still somewhat...soft.
Gagaruna 	I'm afraid the guild requires a basic level of fitness in its recruits. You must condition your body further before you can join us.
 	
Gagaruna 	A decision you'll not regret! But before we proceed to the paperwork, it is essential that you know something of our guild's storied past.
Gagaruna 	Since time immemorial, man has used whatever has been at his disposal to settle disputes. In the beginning, that meant fighting with his fists. Such hand-to-hand combat existed in various forms throughout Eorzea, each evolving independently of one another.
Gagaruna 	The origins of pugilism as we know it, however, can be traced back to the staging of bare-handed bouts at the Coliseum. These contests attracted fighters from far and wide, bringing their myriad styles crashing together on the bloodsands.
Gagaruna 	Amidst this chaotic intermingling of styles, there rose a pugilist of singular strength and skill. This woman made it her life's mission to master every form she encountered, that she might refine her art.
Gagaruna 	Among her many song-worthy exploits, we pugilists remember her participation in a gladiator tournament most fondly. Back when bare-handed fighting was still seen as a pastime for peasants, she took on fully armed and armored gladiators, and effortlessly bested the lot of them.
Gagaruna 	Word of her feat spread across the realm like wildfire, of course, and Ul'dah swiftly transformed into a center of pugilism, with people flocking from all over to train under this master among masters.
Gagaruna 	The woman's name was Cornelia, and it is to her that the Pugilists' Guild owes its existence. The art practiced here is based on her all-encompassing style, and this training hall is modeled upon the one which she once built.
Gagaruna 	And there it is─a brief history of our guild.
Gagaruna 	I've told this tale a thousand times, but gods, it never fails to fan the flames of my fighting spirit!
Gagaruna 	Now then, before we can proceed with your enrollment, you must first obtain the guildmaster's approval. Let me know when you are ready to meet him.
