Flamboyant Start

On a large elevated platform, two youths faced each other, their auras as noble as the other.

On one side, a man with long dark hair and cosmic blue eyes stood, his demeanor static yet ever-changing, soft yet rough beyond words.

He exuded an aura of utter and absolute calm as he lightly caressed his long silver sword, not giving any attention or respect to his opponent.

On the other side, a youth with long rough blonde hair and emerald eyes stood, his expression showing his discontent at his opponent's attitude.

His back was straight and his chin was held high, displaying the pride and grandeur all Dragonborns held. His aura was majestic and imposing as he tightly gripped his golden short sword.

"START!"

[Alexander POV]

Hearing the host's words, I didn't look up as I still lightly caressed Eyda, my sword.

Time moved at a snail's pace as I took a deep breath in.

'Time to see if my training paid off.'
