Re: Mazes within a Steel Jungle (Shrike7)
As she walked, River made a few observations in her head. She had never seen this kind of being before, and that whatever these are, they weren't used to visitors. Whether that was because the doorman stopped the curious, or because nobody tried to begin with, she wasn't sure. Eyes that looked like gemstones, or amber, all male, built like brick shit houses, unreadable. .. Golems, maybe?
She was more sure once she saw the fight in the pits. When she saw it was another arena, she considered taking part again, just to burn off more steam, but after seeing the way they fought... there was no way. She could probably dance around, could probably do enough damage with her abilities, but she wouldn't earn any respect fighting like that. And it would be hell trying to stand up to the hots like they were doing.
The fight ended, the victor lead through a door to elsewhere, the lose glancing around, spotting her and making his way up to the walkway, probably to speak with her, after that look. He hadn't seemed to have lost face with the others for his lost at least. That was good, and made sense. If they only allowed the undefeated, the place would get empty pretty quick.
She stepped away from the railing, making sure there was room for him when she arrived, dipping a bit in greeting. "Impressive fight down there." She said simply. "Where do the winners go?"
