Ashun's team in the Arena of Honor!

In the huge arena of honor, where warriors were clashing every few weeks for the chance at glory and fame, the air was thick and filled with everyone's anticipation. At the heart of this arena was the City of Glory, a towering structure that was looked down upon the sun, making it glow in the distance. This building was more than a mere objective for the fighters to capture in order to win the event. It was the pinnacle of prestige, as it was going to boost morale and spread the tales of the warriors which captured it. Each fighter knew the weight of this battle that awaited them for the City of Glory, and none more so than Ashun and his team, who felt the sting of it slipping through their fingers in previous rounds.

Ashun's pulse quickened as he scouted the area of the battlefield, he wanted to know who he and his team were going to fight against this time around. The arena itself looked weary from the previous round, where Ashun and his teammates fought against BaN members, the alliance of which Ashun is a part of. But despite the allegiance he and the opposition team had, they fought dearly for the city of glory, resulting in a stalemate. It was a battle he was keen to relive as he enjoyed the thrill of facing against such balanced opponents, but he knew today’s battle was going to be even more challenging, making his excitement grow.

His team shared his exact feelings, and none more so than SIR ST, who was going to be the main fighter of the team. He was intimidating to any infantry fighter as SIR ST had a reputation of a fierce cavalry warrior. With Ashun's strategies and SIR ST's strength, they could challenge any team that came their way. Capturing the City of Glory was their main objective, but as Ashun's strategy always covers for any circumstances: they needed altars and trade posts in order to have a steady income of points per minute. As Ashun gave the signal to prioritize the construction of trade posts first and then aim for trading altars, the plan was in motion.

"Another tough round it seems." Ashun muttered, as his opponents were now fully revealed. His voice was however sounding excited for a moment, he seemed eager to have yet another incredible round come his way. His opponents were of incredible might, known around Westeros and just looking at their shiny armor was making Ashun's eyes teary. UTB, with their leading force Thor Storm, was the main adversary that could challenge them for the City of Glory.

Once the trade posts finally constructed, Ashun directed his team to the altars, it was time for the battle against other Houses to begin. They moved quickly, in an attempt to take one trading altar after another. The heavy air was now filled with even more tension as the battles all across the battlefield went on, but Ashun’s team faced little to no fights early on. The points per minute climbed fast, and Ashun allowed himself a brief moment of relaxation before the City of Glory unlocked its gates.

“Let's keep this momentum going, this is going well for us, and with the City of Glory in our sights, we can pull this off. We will show Thor Storm that we can capture the City of Glory against him.” Ashun said, whilst looking towards the one goal of the round.

The calm ended as the City of Glory unlocked, the storm, the Thor Storm have both arrived. This was marking the beginning of the event’s climax, everyone wished to capture the City of Glory but only one could succeed. The atmosphere has changed in an instant, the tension was now higher than ever. Across the battlefield, Thor Storm and his forces went forward, they wanted to be the first to capture the objective.

''Let's get our rally going!'' Ashun said, whilst intently looking at SIR ST, whose rally was getting filled instantly. He used his cavalry, with incredible speed, to crash into Thor Storm's own cavalry. Their clash was loud, worth of being called the greatest fight of the round. 

For a brief moment, it looked as if SIR ST’s rally succeeded, and the City of Glory was theirs, but that brief moment was nothing but an illusion. Thor Storm's incredible resilience showed, attacking over and over, standing back up after being defeated, showing that nothing could stop him. He was truly an unstoppable force, willing to give everything up for his cause.

“It seems that we can’t hold against him together with other houses attacking as well. It's time again to focus on the altars.” Ashun admitted, though he wanted the City of Glory for himself, he was aware of how much they could push for. His frustration was clear in his voice, visible on his face, but he remained focused.

Going for the altars was so that they could keep a steady flow of points, even if they couldn't win the City of Glory, they could obtain a decent position in the rankings, enough to not lose fame points, but instead gain some.

As the final minutes ticked down, Ashun’s team found themselves in third place, showing that the strategy was the right approach. It wasn’t the victory they had hoped for, but it was a respectable finish. They had fought hard for it, with the evidence being in their exhaustion, but it was all deserved.

Ashun was satisfied with their outcome, but at the same time, he wanted more, he wanted the team to be able to compete at any given time for the City of Glory and win. He wanted them to eventually become unstoppable.
