The sounds of buzzing words and sparking conversation could be heard in a low rumble in the gladiatorial arena known as The Cauldron. Thousands of people lined balconies, stadium seating, and individual boxes granted to VIP's. The audience lined a large ring in the center of the stadium sheer walls surrounding it and confining anyone who would be trapped inside. Six gates lined the inner walls of the Cauldron, each a heavy durasteel that dropped down from above, each carved with intricate pictures of Gladiators and Beasts alike. The arena itself was nothing but sand, rock, and and small clumps of recently coagulated blood. It was a harsh unforgiving arena, the perfect place for the first round of a tournament.
Two door's slid open from the opposite sides of the arena, two fighters and the first to participate in the Tournament of the Cauldron. Darth Ayra, a Sith of some repute formerly of the Sith Empire, and Mason Ordo, a Mandalorian that as of yet had not made a great name for himself, though this tournament might have changed that. As both fighters took the ring the crowd cheered and roared, each screaming the name of their favored competitor.
They were silenced suddenly by a loud and strong voice, booming throughout the Arena. “Ladies and Gentlemen. I Welcome you, to the Tournament of the Cauldron!” Loud roars erupted throughout “Gathered here are some of the greatest fighters and warriors in the known galaxy, each competing and each honing their craft for years and years. All have come here for your entertainment, and of course their reward. At the end of these fights, Rattatak will have a new Champion. A title that comes with wealth! Renown! And Favor! I present you, with bout one of the tournament!”
The Crowd broke out into a tremendous cheer once again and Nemene watched quietly as the two fighters below prepared themselves. Once she saw that they were ready she smiled, and then spoke one more time. “Let the games begin!”
