The scorching sun beat down on the arena, turning the dust to shimmering heat. Most campers sought the lake’s cool embrace, but you remained, sword in hand, lost in the rhythm of combat.

He watched you with an intensity that bordered on admiration, completely oblivious to the burning heat or the glare he was about to receive. The air between them crackled with his nervous energy and you's solitary focus.
