Season 4.5 Vulcanus, Arena

Concept
It used to be a popular arena of underworld.
However all the beautiful buildings and monuments were burned down when the volcano erupted all out of sudden.

What’s left now are ashes and blacked rocks which now under surveillance of gatekeeper who has become a stone along the monsters who survived magma.

Background Story
Lorencia where fencing was greatly practiced and its mastery was at the peak, people loved to show off their skills. But this was a privilege reserved only for aristocrats who could afford. Those poor commoners who had neither wealth nor rights had to go underground to fight against each other.

These lack of means resulted in extremity whereby winners will get recognition and praises, the ones who lost had nothing but cold death.

One day deep in this underground arena, torrents of lava poured out and melt down everything. Now what’s left there is the enraged corps of gladiators who still walk around crying out of bitterness.
