Stepping on the hard rock of the floor of the dark arena, the sound reverberates in the unnatural silence of the thousands of spectators waiting for the fight to start, greedy for violence.
Suddenly, with a boom of hollering, all the torches light up at once, their flames revealing the features of the battlefield: the glinting of weapons and armor scattered around, sporadic areas covered in sand, six rock columns (one collapsed) in a circle in the middle, dried blood splatters and bone remains decorating the solid black-grey bricks of the ground. The moonless night above taunts freedom as 4 meters tall walls all around ensure no escape.
As the foe enters from the other side, an acute DING announces the start of the fight.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, LET THE CARNAGE BEGIN! The announcer bellows.
