Kings Baltazar and Kaidan entered the centre of the arena. One clad in black armour, gold fire jewels glinting. The other wore metal that gleamed even in the dimmest morning light.

Baltazar roared in fury. "You dare get in my way brat?!"
He cast a disillusionment spell... and the crowd roared with him.
