In Their Own Story
The air in the Ashen Coliseum tasted of sulfur and old memories as the first match began. A lone challenger stepped into the ring, their cloak singed at the edges, eyes fixed on the towering figure across from them. The crowd, a sea of flickering lanterns held high by desperate hands, fell silent. This was not just a fight for glory; it was a gamble with the future. As the bell tolled—a sound like cracking ice—the challenger drew their weapon, a blade etched with runes that glowed softly in the dim light. The opponent smiled, a predator sensing the spark of defiance, and the first clash sent a shower of sparks raining down upon the arena floor.
