From the introduction:
A serpentine path leads up out of the cities walls, through the heavy fog and up towards the mountains peak. After ascending a wide stone staircase you finally arrive at the gates of this prison, a place where nobles come to enjoy watching some of societies worst disembowel each other.
It houses adequate living quarters for the guards and caretakers of the prison, several weeks of food stocks, cells for dozens of criminals and it’s pride and joy, the arena.
The arena is connected to three sets of cells, containing prisoners that are expected to fight within the next day. They’re generally set into three distinct “teams” and named after a certain color, such as green, red, and yellow. The prisoners are both expected to work with their partner while fending of attacks from both the other teams, at least if they wish to live.
Over the years the warden has found this set up leads to the most exiting viewing experiences for the nobles.
