Piper Papillon’s POV:
‘’ Hello Panem! Day two of training has just concluded, which means there is only one day left! After that, it won’t be long until this show finally gets underway and we can see the arena! But first, I have quite a number of announcements for you all! Regarding the special attractions you all have been voting for over the past number of days, we can finally announce the winning attractions.
For the first special attraction which had a mutation theme, you all had the choice between zombie townsfolk, animal hybrids and finally mermaid sirens. After a vigorous vote period, I can finally announce the winning attraction. The special attraction the tributes will face first is...mermaid sirens!
For special attraction number two which had a natural disaster them, you had a choice between geysers of boiling water, an earthquake or blood rain. After days of intense voting, with our phones ringing off the hook twenty four seven, we have finally reached a winner. The winning attraction, which the tributes will face second, is...blood rain! That sure will be exciting!
Finally, for the third special attraction which had the theme of loved ones, again you had three options. You could choose between torture stalls, a comatose partner or a false food offering from a loved one. Like before, you were voting none stop but we can confirm that we have a winner. The third special attraction the tributes will face – which is the one I am most excited about – is the partner coma!
Thank you all very much for your votes over the course of the last few days, we are pleased to be able to involve you all so much in the Games as it makes the celebrations even more entertaining!
Now then, the next piece of news I have for you all is regarding the arena. We here at the Capitol want to know which pair you expect to win this year’s Hunger Games pageant, i.e. who will you be rooting for to win? So please, send us in the names of the tributes you want to win!

A World Worth Protecting
By the year 3029 CE, Earth’s technology has developed rapidly, borders no longer exist, and Earth has been unified, marking the beginning of the era of the Federation. At that time, a huge sword flew from the heavens, piercing the sun and causing a huge sensation on Earth. Perhaps because the scabbard of the sword was already in tatters, countless shards have broken off from it following the collision with the sun and spread across the universe. Many of these shards have landed on various places across Earth. With the arrival of the bronze sword and its shards, a new unlimited energy source has suddenly appeared on Earth. This energy source has since been named Spirit Qi. Spirit Qi is like air, thick in some places and thin in others. As the Federation and other factions gather more shards, they discover more information on cultivation, pill refinement, Spirit Stone refinement, and other techniques. The words on the shards have an ancient feel to them, making it a trend for people to use ancient language. The appearance of Spirit Qi rapidly makes the original energy sources obsolete and has completely changed people’s lives. Not only has the Spirit Internet been formed, Spirit Qi has also changed the course of Human Civilization, causing the world to enter a civilization of cultivation. This would later come to be known as the Spirit Inception Era.

The Great War has ended. But the bloodshed has only just begun. The largest conflict in all of human history has just ended, with Europe at the center of the carnage.

While others struggle to hold on to their hard-fought victories. In the midst of all of this is The Second Roman Empire.

When documents pertaining to the identities of the many men working to undermine the empire show themselves in domestic waters. The Empire readies itself to slice off the many parasites draining the government of both wealth and unity. If only the documents didn't also happen to end up on The Dotted Isles. Dozens of man-made islands, some even hundreds of miles large. And currently one of the most unstable areas of the entire empire.
