Cheers from the stands rose together, blending into an incomprehensible roar of fury and bloodlust that shook the arena to its foundations. The sun beat down upon sand rippling beneath a steady breeze and littered with splotches of fresh crimson from the previous bout.
The priest stood motionless beneath the shadow of the arena's wall, yellow eyes scanning ceaselessly as he waited for his next opponent to arrive. His own anticipation rivaled that of the crowd, though wheras they simply wished to be entertained, Faust was merely eager to begin his rites of worship.
In order to celebrate the Destroyer God through Holy Mutilation, the Prophet had left his armor behind. He was clad in a shapeless robe of tattered black cloth and boots of tooled leather, a single chain of beskar encircling his waist. In his right hand he held the beskad given to him as an Initiate; blood still dripped dripped down its razor edge and over the leather-wrapped hilt. In his left was Gorehound, the obsidian axe of Darian's that had sent so many souls to Kad. Aside from the nine inch beskar dirk threaded through a link in his belt, they were his only weapons. The Grimhammer, like his armor, had been left behind in order to pay tribute to tradition.
As the door on the far side of the arena began to creak open, the priest's ruined features twisted into a pleased smile. He pushed off the wall casually and fell into a brisk stride toward where his opponent would be entering, axe and blade spinning lazily as he came.
