The sun blazes across the Olympian sky as Apollo’s chariot marks the dawn, signaling the start of the Arena’s trials. A hushed crowd of deities, including Artemis and Athena, watches from the stands. In the sand, David faces the reigning champions. Hermes, clad in his golden winged helmet and sandals, stands with one chest bare beneath a shifting invisible cloak. The air hums with tension as Hermes’ winged shoes flutter, propelling him forward in a blur of motion. He vanishes and reappears instantly, a smirk playing on his lips as he taunts his opponent from every angle at once.
