Arena

You find an abundance of wood suitable for a fire in a grove of trees not far from the mouth of the cave. You gather a good sized pile of wood and set it down at the mouth of the cavern.

The moment the wood clatters on the ground you hear something stirring within the cave. You hear the scrape of steel leaving a leather scabbard echo off the walls.

A chorus of howling wolves calls in the distance. They seem closer than before... Much closer. You get a sense of impending doom with the call of the pack and the heavy footsteps approaching within the cavern.
