Glistening in the morning light were the tamed mutated beasts, ready for aerial assault. Massive birds with scales instead of feathers, their wingspan wide enough to cast significant shadows, paced restlessly.

As Luca stepped forward, ready to rally the troops with words of encouragement and strength, a sudden shift in the atmosphere halted him in his tracks.

The cheers for Lenny were a clear message; here was their true leader, the heart of their courage and the source of their hope.
As Lenny raised his hand, commanding silence and drawing all eyes to him, Luca could only watch in a mix of awe and envy, the bitter taste of jealousy a sharp contrast to the sweetness of the crowd's adoration for the man who stood before them, ready to lead them into battle.
Lenny stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over the sea of faces before him, each one alight with anticipation and fervor. He raised his hands, commanding silence with a presence so powerful, it stilled the air itself. When he spoke, his voice resonated, not just through the square, but into the hearts of all who heard him.
"Brothers and sisters," Lenny began, his voice steady and impassioned, "I stand before you, not as a myth, not as a legend, but as proof. Proof that no pit is so deep, no arena so deadly, no enemy so formidable that it cannot be overcome."
He paused, letting his words sink in, his eyes locking with those of the men and women who had gathered, seeing in them their fears, their hopes, their dreams.
"I climbed out of the arena pits, pits owned by demons who thought they could contain us, control us, define our destinies. But here I am, standing with you, breathing the same air of freedom that we have fought so hard to inhale."

His voice grew louder, more forceful, each word punctuated with the weight of his own journey, his own battles fought and won.
"Today, we stand at the edge of a new arena, not one built of stone and spectated by the jeering masses, but one that stretches across our planet, our home. It is our destiny, not to fight for the amusement of our oppressors, but to fight for our freedom, for our right to live on this earth that is rightfully ours."
The crowd erupted, screams and cheers filling the air, a tumultuous sea of voices united in a single, overwhelming cry for liberty and vengeance.
"This is our time!" Lenny shouted, his voice cutting through the noise, a clarion call to arms. "We will climb from the depths of despair, we will rise from the ashes of defeat, and we will reclaim our world from the demons that seek to destroy it. Together, we are invincible. Together, we will win!"
The response was electric, a thunderous roar of approval and agreement that seemed to shake the very foundations of the territory.
