* The Story *
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In former times, this deatmatch arena was a long set of tunnels and caves,
both natural and built by man, which connected the kingdoms of Istenraid and
Huglathon which where separated by the huge cloud mountains. But then, the
evil hordes invaded Huglathon, and the tunnels where sealed off to protect
the peacefull lands of Istenraid. But that held off the invaders only for a short
period of time, and then Istenraid also was conquered.
Today, the whole continent is a evil place, and the Vadrigar chose this old dungeons
to be once again a place of chaos and agony. Rumors tell, that theres a small place of
peace in the endless caves, called the Inner Sanctum. No fights are taking place there
by a unspoken and unwriten rule. the rumors also say that the Vadrigar have hidden
a almighty powerful BFG there. But till today, no gladiator was ever able to find this secret
place. But remember warrior: Should you ever find this place, and meet another gladiator
there, remember the rule and never break the peace of this holy place!
