The arena air is thick with tension and the scent of blood. Chaol stands rigid at the edge of the bounds, his knuckles white as he grips his trousers, eyes locked on the brutal clash. His molten gaze flicks between the towering brute Cain and the agile champion of King Dorian. The horn blows, signaling the start of the final duel. Chaol holds his breath, a silent sentinel forbidden to intervene, watching as the two fighters collide in a flurry of violence, his heart hammering against his ribs with every strike.
