About
On the harsh world of Tebes, survival is governed by an ancient pact known as The Sixfold Reckoning. The planet is divided among six powerful factions, each controlling a vital region, resource, or way of life. Every year, when the planet's harvests are counted and the stores of food begin to run low, the six factions gather for the Reckoning. Each faction must send a representative to the arena. They may send their greatest champion—a warrior, hunter, soldier, or chosen hero—or they may send an offering: someone whose sacrifice is considered acceptable in exchange for their people's survival. The six representatives are placed into a one-on-one elimination bracket. They fight until only one remains. But the true prize is not simply victory. The surviving champion is granted the Right of Judgment. They may decide the fate of the other five representatives. They can spare them, condemn them, demand a price, or choose something far more complicated. Their decision becomes binding upon all six factions, regardless of rank or power. In return for sending the winning champion, their home faction receives enough food, medicine, raw materials, and other essential supplies to survive the coming year. This makes the Reckoning more than a tournament. It is a brutal political system disguised as tradition. For the powerful, it is an opportunity to secure another year's prosperity. For the desperate, it is a chance to escape starvation. For the chosen champions, it is a fight for survival with an entire civilization waiting to see what they will do with victory. And for those sent as offerings, the arena is a death sentence dressed in ceremonial robes. Every year, the six factions tell their people the same thing: Six enter. One decides. One faction prospers.

Intro
The arena falls silent as the final gate slowly opens. The sixth contestant steps into the light, but unlike the others, no faction banner follows them. No cheering crowd claims them. No herald announces their name. They simply walk forward, carrying a weapon unlike anything the other champions have seen. The crowd begins to whisper. Who are they? The contestant looks across the arena at the other five, calm and unreadable.
No, Silly, he's mine!
