The sun falls, and the darkness spreads over William, Myst, Spear, Minst, Guile and Kirra in cages spread over the flat sandy desert.
With night comes with cold, shivers and thirsts. With night comes a low maon through the moon light night and a scream.
The scream wakes all but but Guile, and they stare from the scream to the rise. Then one by one each layon the sand and sleep dreamless states to the morning.

If you run you get the lushish and fragrant drink that you are now having pleasure while drinking. The drink is a brew created by Senator Ring, and it will feed thirst and hunger like the nector of the Gods. After the Zenith drink then begins fight training.''

You will have your trial. You wil have your chance to test you, to test your innocence.''

All hear heat beats before they hear distant and echoing shouts and clicking as soldiers approcch.
The Id slay calm on back with eyes peeing at the barred cell ceiling.
Myst looses song and voice and sits. In her mind only the sound of the shout she finds. She sits and looks at the ground.
John click and clacks and shout, ,,YOU MOVE FROM CAGE. YOU MOVE FROM CAGE OR FEEL MY RAGE!'' He pulls and pushes soldeirs from the cage door.
The soldiers stumble and push away from the door. Soldiers hold and pull Spear away.
Spear grows fur and limbs extend and jaw locks a snout. His finger nails grow slow to claws and bodys shakes.
The warriors around Spear crawl and pull away as the click and clack and point holding shields before and short swords tips aime at Spear's body.
William says as he grips bars. ,,If you arm my friends you will suffer the rath of Gods.''
As William speaks, John of the Goblinkin steps into to the cage.
As william speaks, Myst and the Id lay ont he ground while Kirra climbs on top of the Id.
As William speaks, warrors and soldiers and prisoners run to the cages around forming a broken circle.
As William Speaks, the Id Squeaks.
,,KIRRA,'' shouts John. ''YOU STOP.''
Kirra punches the Id's head.
John reaches for Kirra's shoulder.
Kirra shift's shoulder and punches at John.
John ducks the punchs and hits fist aside. ,,YEILD, YOU.'' He grabs Kirra's collar and pulls Kirra back. His hooked neck rises head staight and pulls.
John's shout quiet soft clatter and talk of the soldiers, warriors and prisoners walking around the cage.
The look as Spear and step away.
Ten soldiers stand around Spear and hold swords at Spear.
Spear arms hang long and hair. The ropes around the white cloth spull tight around long legs. Clwas scrape the sand. Spear breathes and sees the points of the daggers. He smells a scent of musk and heat that burn in his mind to the deep.
A cherry peach fumes flow from the sweat of a being walk near.
Spear sniffs as his heart calms with the fums of the smell.
The swords point and jostle as a crowd of yellow armored warrios wearing yellow leather coils push with their short swords and shields into the group around the cage of Myst, Spear and the area.
Soft clatter of clicking stops as a voice says, ,,Release Glare and heed the challange or I keep your coin and seek law to pay for the damage of property.''
The soldiers and warriors with yellow amor calm. Johns soldiers with black leather and chain mail push against the yellow coifed warriors. Their small sheilds and sowrds cross and press.
John of the Goblin shouts, ,,YOU GET ME MONEY AND I WILL PULL...'' John ducks a punch from KIrra.
Kirra punches and stand and steps my Myst.
Myst sit by the Id.
The id lays on back calm and breathing.
,,YIELD,'' shout John. He steps from Kirr and points the jewelled dagger tip at Kirra. John says, ,,You yeild or you die.''
Willaim hears the shout and looks over the hugoblins, hobgoblins, humans, dwarves, elves and muts of beings standing around. The prisnoers in white stand together around the warriors and soldiers.
,,Kirra,'' says William. ''Myst.''
Myst says, ,,Kirra, it is not our song to sing for battle.'' Myst begins to hum again.
The hum spreads and feels to clam Kirra.
The Id hums with Myst.
The soldiers wearing the yellow coifs pull on prisoneer in white sheet and john's soldiers from the cage bars. A path to the cage door is created by a hall of yellow.
One of John's soldiers's clicks and push a yellow coifed soldier. Shield sand swords are raised. Click clack ans snaps.
John looks at Kirra. ,,YEILD OR DIE.''
The shorts clank and clatter queiets with the clacks.
John looks at the cage door and speaks at the yellow coifed warrios standing a hall to a white robed being. ,,Get the Id out of my cage.''
The white robed being stands.
The smell of bread and dust swirl.
The Id rolls to side and stands. it ducks as it through the door and riase above the most of the creatures surrounding.
Kirra stands swith Myst.
John stands in cage and clicks and clack.
The yellow soldiers jostle around the Id and the white robed being no taller than Guile.
The warrios of John wearing the black armor and black chain mail click and clack a beat. The stand around spear and step from the crow and back along the horizons to the Rise, Wane, Wax and Rise.
The crowd clear and leaves the desert to the sand and cages.
Guile sits and rubs skull feeling the darkness of the ids mind dim the focus on the pain in ankle, the hunger in stomach, the confusion of mind. ,,Ghjo,'' he mutters as he leans on bars and slides down to sand.
The sand blows with a gust.
The gust blows voer Minst as Minst tries to click, but finds the sound off and tone low as the click. He clicks high and low hopeing small shields appear around Kirra, but knowing that he feels like there are no shields appear about Myst.
Myst stands and sees all with sound.
John, the soldiers, William, Myst, Kirra, Guile, Minst and Spaer stand as other walk and leave. They stare and look and breathe. They wait and look between the spaces
.
Spear twitches and heart beats. The smell of peach and must blow away. The heart race slows pace to a clam beat.
,,You give me two wood.'' says John of the Goblkin. John smiles. ''You have three cups.'' He walks from cage. ''You have three cups and you have the sun. And for the victors of the battle you may roam free utnil the night comes.'' John of the Goblin looks at William. ''You will remain in your cage.'' He steps between the soldiers around Spear as Spear stands. ''You are a feak and will earn me money in the bit or the dome if you live the desert.'' John steps around Spear
Spear stands, breathes slow and deep and sways like a tree.
John licks his pointed teeth. ''YOu were scare people. You were are dangerous to the population, but people pay to see the fight of the freaks. YOu make shit money.'' John walks between the soldiers and by William. ''You are stains of shit.'' And john walks toward the set.
Soldiers, one by one, follow.
Guile shouts, ,,WHEN WE GET DRINK.''
The sun shines. The sand lays still. And John and the soldiers become silhouettes then fall into the sand along the Rise horizon.
Minst finds his tongue and holds back a want to click. ,,What do we do now?''
,,You leave,'' says William. ''Get the liquid given for the victory and be off in the direction of John.''
Spear sways and looks a William.
