MASKTOURN

When he neared the arena,Aarni was pulled aside by a pair of attendants and brought into a small, plain room. Kairas was waiting for him. "Aarni." She greeted with a nod. "I'll take your mask now, you won't need it during the fight." @Twig | Seki / Aarni

Aarni was... not looking all too confident. His breathing was shallow, he was pale, and as he handed over his mask, his eyes were wide. His hands were trembling, and he gripped onto the mask, fearing it would otherwise slip out of his grasp. @innsjo | kyrie🪶+ darcy🖋+npcs

Kairas took the mask, and gestured towards the door. "Good luck. Fight well." @Twig | Seki / Aarni

Aarni nodded, his throat too dry to talk, and went through the door. @innsjo | kyrie🪶+ darcy🖋+npcs

When he neared the arena, Kal was pulled aside by a pair of attendants and brought into a small, plain room. Kairas was waiting for him. "Kal. We haven't met, but I'm Kairas, the leader of the bird side." She greeted with a nod. "I'll take your mask now, you won't need it during the fight." @Vanessa | Cansu🐥+Evan🔩+Kal🌟

"Oh- Hey there! I was told that you'd be real cool and chill to talk to," He offered her a small wave. "Cool to meet you! Bummed to do it here, bad timing, right? Oh, yeah, the mask, right, lemme grab that for you." Kal took off the mask and held it out to her. @innsjo | kyrie🪶+ darcy🖋+npcs

"Thank you." Kairas took the mask with a nod. "Good luck. Fight well." @Vanessa | Cansu🐥+Evan🔩+Kal🌟

"Thanks," Kal gave her a thumbs up and pointed to the door. "Do I just- Walk through there?" @innsjo | kyrie🪶+ darcy🖋+npcs

"Yes." Kairas sai

"Cool, thanks! I'll, uh, maybe see you later." Kal waved. He made his exit. @innsjo | kyrie🪶+ darcy🖋+npcs

Finally able to take off the mask, Levi stretched in anticipation for the ~~slaughter~~ fight. While he'd accept whatever ending awaited him if he lost, he was going to try and make. This. Satisfying.

When he neared the arena, Levi was pulled aside by a pair of attendants and brought into a small, plain room. Kairas was waiting for him. "Levi. We haven't met, but I'm Kairas, the leader of the bird side." She greeted with a nod. "I'll take your mask now, you won't need it during the fight." @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

"Heh. And here I thought I was gonna get the chance to smash it with none of yall lookin." He snorts, tossing the make towards the pair. @innsjo | kyrie🪶+ darcy🖋+npcs

Kairas caught the mask in one hand, like a showoff, and gestured to the door to the arena "You may now enter." @Barry|Lacey🔦+ Levi🫠

Without a single ounce of hesitation he goes forward, grinning the entire time as he moves to enter the arena. @innsjo | kyrie🪶+ darcy🖋+npcs

When he neared the arena, Eremurus was pulled aside by a pair of attendants and brought into a small, plain room. Kairas was waiting for him. "Eremurus. We haven't met, but I'm Kairas, the leader of the bird side." She greeted with a nod. "I'll take your mask now, you won't need it during the fight." @Cap | Eremurus + Valerie

"Uhm...thanks." Eremurus said nervously as he gave the mask over to her. @innsjo | kyrie🪶+ darcy🖋+npcs

"You may enter the arena." Kairas gestured to the door that led out to the arena once she had taken the mask. @Cap | Eremurus + Valerie

When she neared the arena, Kyrie was pulled aside by a pair of attendants and brought into a small, plain room. Kairas was there waiting for her. "Kyrie." She nodded. "I'm sorry your fight had to be so soon. I'll take your mask now." Kyrie handed over the mask without hesitation- she never wore it, anyways. She kept her gaze on Kairas, looking for any sign of recognition- any help or humanity in their shared heritage. She found none. Kairas gestured towards the door. "You may enter the arena now." Kyrie took a deep breath, trying to prepare herself for her doom, and entered the entered.

When he neared the arena, Ace was pulled aside by a pair of attendants and brought into a small, plain room. Kairas was waiting for him. "Ace." She greeted with a nod. "I'll take your mask now, you won't need it during the fight." @Kip | Ace 🏹 / Ellie 📷

Agh. They didn't get the chance to talk to Gale yet. "Kairas," Ace returned, nodding slightly as he took off his mask. He had just put it on. Maybe it wasn't as important as it was supposed to be. He handed it over, an unreadable sort of look on his face. Maybe they should have talked to Gale. Ellie would have liked that. @innsjo | kyrie🪶+ darcy🖋+npcs

Kairas took the mask. "You may enter the arena now. @Kip | Ace 🏹 / Ellie 📷

When he neared the arena, Peregrine was pulled aside by a pair of attendants and brought into a small, plain room. Kairas was waiting for him. "Peregrine" She greeted with a nod. "I'll take your mask now, you won't need it during the fight. You'll also need to change clothes." She held out a neatly folded outfit. It looked to be a very fancy suit, dress shoes and all. @soul | kallum 🔥 + peregrine 🎭

Peregrine was barely standing, swaying on his feet. His eyes fell to the suit and he laughed. "My funeral rites," he crooned, stumbling forward. "I hope I'm still the same size." @innsjo | kyrie🪶+ darcy🖋+npcs

Kairas didn't reply. The suit would fit Peregrine perfectly. @soul | kallum 🔥 + peregrine 🎭

Peregrine was used to stripping in front of other people and unfortunately for Kairas, he didn't bother with a pretence for privacy. He put the suit on, stretching out his wings and patting down the sleeves. "Tell your tailors thanks. I don't plan on living long enough to meet them." @innsjo | kyrie🪶+ darcy🖋+npcs

Kairas gestured to the door. Peregrine could enter the arena now. @soul | kallum 🔥 + peregrine 🎭

As Roman neared the arena, he was pulled aside by two of the guards, who gave him muttered apologies before they left. He was brought into a small plain room, where Kairas was waiting for him. "So... it's finally time." Kairas hummed, and glanced over Roman's appearance. "Didn't think this would ever happen." @Mads | Roman 🥁 Asha 🎆 ? 🪱

Roman told the attendants quietly that it was alright, and followed them without any complaints. "Hey," Roman smiled tiredly as he walked inside. Thankfully, he had cleaned off all the blood on him (as well as his room) before arrival. Wearing the incredible fit of Raikal's pants, no shoes, a cut open band jacket, a ponytail, and an eyeball jar, Roman was in it to win it! The only evidence of his previous escapades was.. A few bruises on select parts of his body. Oh, also the blood thing was clambering after him.. @innsjo | kyrie🪶+ darcy🖋+npcs

Kairas's grimace deepened as she saw the blood thing. "Hey. You can... enter the arena now." @Mads | Roman 🥁 Asha 🎆 ? 🪱

"Oh, alright... Uh, if I die, good luck with the rest of this..?" Roman said as he headed to the door. The blood thing followed after, and the eyes turned to glare at Petrai. @innsjo | kyrie🪶+ darcy🖋+npcs

"... good luck." @Mads | Roman 🥁 Asha 🎆 ? 🪱

"Mhm, goodbye, Petrai." Roman gave a little wave and headed out. @innsjo | kyrie🪶+ darcy🖋+npcs
