Jono, Teana, and Atem return to the grounds, where Atem has a quick Duel with Jono and defeats him. Seto agrees to duel Atem later at the dueling grounds. Seto and Atem are about to duel when one of Heishin's aides tells Seto that Heishin requests his presence. Priest Seto mocks Jono's ineptitude in dueling, and Jono and Teana tell Seto that Atem could easily defeat him. Teana spots Jono dueling, and greets him just as Jono's opponent, Priest Seto, defeats him. They watch the mages march around a shrine, holding flags, and Teana comments that the ceremonies are starting to seem darker, assuming that it is the work of the 'detestable' high mage Heishin, a sorcerer who leads a group of independent high mages. After some games, Teana tells him of a festival occurring in the Plaza, and they leave to see it. One night, Atem escapes Simon Muran, his tutor and advisor, to visit the dueling grounds, where he mets up with Teana and a few villagers. The story begins in Ancient Egypt, with the prince of the dynasty ( Atem), who often spends time at the dueling ground playing against other villagers, and his two friends, Jono and Teana. Their roles differ slightly and a few exclusive characters exist. The characters consist mainly of characters from the anime and manga. See also: :Category: Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories characters
