The King's demeanor turned more business-like as he prepared to move the ceremony forward. "But with all of that out of the way, let's get down to the first portion of today's process."
The crowd hushed, anticipation building as they listened intently.
"As you all know and as I stated in the initial announcement, we will be having the first-ever 50 on 50 matchup, designed to critically attack the thought process and test the survival of everyone, and pit enemies as allies and allies as enemies."
The King paused for a moment, letting the gravity of his words sink in. "The first part in making this process happen is to begin the draw selection."
He gestured towards a large, ornate bowl filled with numbered balls ranging from 1 to 100, placed centrally on the stage for all to see.
"We will have each participant come up and draw a lottery number from 1-100."
