Marvels of Norzelia, Vol. 9
Dear reader, I must apologize, for I cannot describe this location in any detail, both for my own safety and your own peace of mind. Pray forgive me. You see, the locale in question is home to an unlawful tournament, hosted by...well, someone whose identity is a secret best left alone. It was pure happenstance that I found myself paying a visit to this underground arena. The matches are all bloody battles, and spectators take great joy in wagering large sums on which combatant will emerge victor.
The entertainment here is truly a matter of life or death, and attracts an avid audience of highborn, wealthy patrons. You may recognize a face or two in the crowd... But it is best you forget whomever you think you see. Too much curiosity in a place like this is apt to get you killed. Of course, dear reader, you are free to doubt my account as you like. Indeed, your life may be happier if you choose to believe there is no such place where the rich gather to enjoy such a violent, deadly pastime.
