I see the white Dragonborn and the tabaxi walking down the hallway, side by side, as they chat away. The tabaxi rogue senses someone is looking at him as he glances at my direction before waving and looking back at the Dragonborn as she continues her story.
I shrug and ride Blossom down the hall before feeling something disappear. I look down and realize, my storage ring is gone. I begin to panic as I look around before noticing that the tabaxi is holding my ring.
I quickly hop down and walk over to him before asking, "I have two questions, how did you get the ring off of my finger without me noticing and can I have it back?"
He quickly looks at me with a confused look, "What ring?" And quickly closes his paw around the ring in his hand. 'I am not going to tolerate this. Intimidating glare.' I watch as he freezes up and falls face first onto the floor, the ring rolls across the floor before landing at my feet. The white Dragonborn quickly goes by his side to check and see if he is alright, seemingly not caring about my presence.
I kneel down and pick it up before checking and seeing that everything is inside. I glare at him for a few more seconds before tightly clenching my hand around the ring and getting back onto the Mocouger. 'This was given to me from my dad and it holds everything that's mine, like hell your getting it!'
As I begin to continue leaving, I hear a voice, "Stop! He took my ring!"
'Son of a bitch. Did he seriously have to pull this shit in a kings castle?!' I quickly feel something coming towards my direction and realize it's time to go. I quickly withdraw Winter and Blossom, along with her saddle, into my tattoos as I active 'Home Realm.'
My vision blurs and everything merges and molds before my eyes as I am suddenly back in my room, everything like how I left it. I release Blossom and Winter from the tattoos and see Blossom appear in front of me as a purple blob drops onto my head. 'I will head back when I know it's calmed down.

Meanwhile, in the Shadow Realm.

'Damn it.' I think as I get up. 'Almost had it.' I quickly comb my fur as I question what that kid just did. 'So he used an ability to stop me....I want it. Anyway, he must be close, I want whatever is in that ring.' I think as I walk over to where he was and sniff the air before slowly walking down the hall, following his scent.
The white Dragonborn looks at me confused as I sniff the air constantly as I walk down the halls. I eventually exit the castle as I continue to follow the scent. As I weave through the people, I see a glimmer of gold scales in the light as it walks towards the massive arena.
'No way....it can't be him.' I immediately bolt after the gold figure and, clearly unable to listen to my thoughts. But as I follow the figure, I am stunned solid by what I hear as I enter the massive arena.
"Zralin Estis versus Vorkis Sortin! Greatest battle of the century! Don't miss it and don't forget to place your bets!"
I feel a presence come up behind me and hear her voice, "What is it? Why are we here?" I am broken from my stupor and turn around to see Erika still wearing her hood, her white scales and short stature standing before me. I point at the Dragonborn and ask, "Zralin Estis. Who is he and how did he get here?"
She is caught off guard before saying, "From what I have heard about him, he is a legendary golden Dragonborn who claims to have fought a god before with his allies and won, having even one of them become a god themselves. But the species and people he talks about all make no sense as we haven't seen them or heard of him before."
"I would think he is making it up but he has a nickname in the arena that deters this it is-" she is cut off by me as I have already heard this nickname hundreds of times before, his name he had gotten from creating this legendary move. A move said to be able to kill gods if used correctly.
"God Shattering Star." She looks at me with a small look of surprise before asking curiously, "How did you know? Have you been to the arena before?" I shake my head as I walk in, "I haven't visited this place even once before."
