{Outside The Projection}
The projection paused before their clash.
And that pause nearly made the hall scream.
It nearly made the entire world scream, all so desperately anticipating the clash.
Everything preceding it—the mind games, wordplay, and incredible stances—made them beyond psyched.
They knew it to be kingdom-ending, as their battle was known to have at least lasted for three days and was known to have changed the literal foundation of the entire kingdom.
Their battle made the kingdom go through a ten-year war, both external and internal, in a few nights.
It was no doubt an incredible sight of destruction, but their actual battle must've been even more so.
A battle that wasn't written about, only mentioned to have occurred.
Yes, poets and bards sang about it, but those weren't exactly known as a proper source of unfantastical, unbiased, and undramatized history.
