From here, she could see all of the arena floor, along with the bright sun out in the sky. It was late morning already, and she could see a couple of people around the place, chatting and having a drink. She smiled, looking at them for a moment. The Grand Arena was always attracting visitors, and she made sure to always keep the food and drink reserves filled so they could have a good time while watching matches. The gold fee she charged people to fight in the arena was well worth it, both for herself as the host, and for the fighters, for the chance to prove themselves as strong warriors.<br/><br/>She went to one of the tables, after casually saying hi to some of the patrons, then sat down, bringing her arms up behind her head. She was in a good mood, ready to see more fighting, perhaps even fight herself. She started wondering who would come in next, and who would want to fight....<br/>
