Wasteland Arena
The sands of the arena were hot, even through the leather boots that the Kushari had on. It was a hot day on Nal Hutta, a glorious day for a fight. And in the arena stood only two figures, viewed as two small statues from the far stands of the crowd. Yet they still cheered, they still gave their energy for the fighters in the sand. And Icarus fed off of it time and time again. The Kushari hurled his massive sword at his opponent, merely a distraction, one that put the heavily shielded opponent on his back. By the time he was able to get up, he managed to simply block the crushing claws with the broadside of his shield. And now it was gone, the power and force of Icarus was far too strong. And this gladiator was no pushover.
That's when the crowd started to get louder, they sensed the end. The Human was on his back and less protected, a short sword his only means. But Icarus did not care, he tasted blood and his focus was unrelenting. Roaring loud enough to be heard over the crowd, as he slashed and swiped at the downed enemy. Blood starting to taint his fur and soon enough the resistance had stopped. There was nothing left of his enemy.
Icarus panted over the lifeless corpse. Sweat dripping off his fur and onto the armor of the dead gladiator.
Borga sat atop his altar, his podium, and his pedestal. Watching all the crowd worship the Kushari gladiator, and worshiping himself. His most prized fighter and his most valuable asset. Borga sipped on fine wine and indulged himself as he conversed with his small entourage, and whomever he decided to invite this day. Though he was waiting on just one more. One particular individual who could certainly help him get in the best wishes of the Grand Lorda himself.
