Overlord Shinn walked up to the throne in the overlord's personal luxury box in the Nocturnia Colosseum. He sat down and waited for the highest ranking Nocturnians currently in town to arrive. "Pity Raej isn't here to see this," he said with a sinister smile. He noted Auvian's arrival. "As I thought you're the first here. Now once everyone else arrives we'll begin."
"Yes my lord," Auvian replied. "Noel should be here shortly. The others should follow soon after."
"Good," Shinn replied. " I look forward to their reaction to this demonstration."

Majra hobbled in and sat down in a seat by Shin's box. "I heard a lot about this demonstration." he said. "I hear she's a court jester. That will be Nocturnia's first."

"A court jester?" Torga scoffed as he walked in. "Bah, this is a waste of time. What's she going to do juggle her enemies to death?"
"Don't forget you are in the presence of his majesty," Karu said, walking in behind Torga.
"It's ok," Shinn said. "I can assure you General Ithra, there will be little juggling."

Paraki walked in. "Your majesty, the mutants are almost prepared. Though they have increased in strength by a factor of .3% rather than the .15% I have previously predicted."

"Excellent," Shinn said. "That may make things a bit more interesting."
"Mutants?" Karu asked.
"It is of little concern, General Larona," Shinn replied. "You shall see for yourself soon enough."

Paraki walked away to make the final preparations on the mutants while Noel was escorted in.

"Ah, Prince Noel," Auvian said. "It's good to see you up and around. You've been spending a lot of time in your room lately. I believe you of all people will enjoy this." With that line he flashed a wicked smile at Noel.
"Ah Noel," Shinn said. "Now that you're here we can begin." Shin stood up. "Now then, I want you all to witness Nocturnia's latest addition to it's military. Our new secret weapon."
With that a curtain dropped in the center of the arena, revealing a girl in a cage.

The caged girl stood up in the cage with her head down. She had on a strange jester-themed costume with a giant spade shape on the front. She had a jester hat on with three bells drooping off from the back, and half of a white mask on the left side of her face. She was holding daggers in both of her hands. She stood still, in the middle of the cage.
"Seeing her brings back memories..." Noel commented.

"Giredi?" Karu asked. "What's she doing there?"
"Oh you'll see," Shinn said. "Send in the mutants."
Large gates opened on each side of the arena. Half a dozen creatures entered. They looked vaugly humanoid, but hidiously deformed with animal like features and vicious.
"You're handiwork, eh Paraki?" Torga commented.
The creatures slowly approached Giredi, circling like sharks.
"Those things look like a pack of heyenas closing in on a kill," Karu commented. "What is all this?"
"Oh you'll see," Shinn replied. "Watch."
The largest creature let out a roar.

"They will attack relentlessly at the slightest sense of blood." Paraki commented. "Just one can devour an army in minutes if that happens."
Just after Paraki said that, Giredi lifted a dagger to her chest and jabbed her own self with it, then cut herself across the shoulder, looking up at the largest creature.
