Sergio was examining the fruit. It would be wise for him not to touch anything that did not look normal to his eyes as he was told by other merchants and from something he witnessed himself. He watched some people lose their challenges because they either passed out from the food they ate or began to act really slutty or otherwise. The point was that he kept with eating food that he knew like apples of red or green colors and not the kind that radiated with blue skin or otherwise. That was when he heard his name and turned around to hear the voice. It was none other than his cellmate Nixon.
"It was actually last minute" he stated. "I got pulled into some random challenge by a monkey king or something like that and paid here a visit after it was done."
He put on a brave face of course. He was older than the other male and obviously tried to remain strong for the things he could potentially lose back at home. Long as he was winning, it would seem like he was still out practicing before heading back to his family for the evening. The idea did cross him that he could lose and that would be the end of ever seeing them again. "I hate it too, but anything we can do to survive, huh?"
Sergio presently wore a brown cloak over the traditional Greek attire he was forced to wear, the male resembling everything like a Gladiator, from the little to no protection on his body save for the upper region of his chest, only one arm being long sleeved. His lower body were modern day compression pants and flexible shoes. He couldn't be picky in what he was given to wear, but only to make due with it.
"So what were you looking to buy?"

As the night was approaching in the large city, a council was being called in the large castle itself that held the games. Their bodies faintly glowed through the night air, cloaks covering most of it as they stepped inside to be around various figures of different races, from Satyrs to Minotaurs to even not so well known species, conversing either amongst themselves or with other races. The figures took their own seats as they waited for everyone else to arrive. It was to discuss who would go next for the games, though for this particular race, they usually liked to go last against some of the humans who were close to winning their freedom. Still, they enjoyed the games either way so that they could size up potential candidates.
