_Crash went Kaldov's fist into Vauruk's face. The bat reeled. The roar of the crowd grew distant, washed away in waves of black. Clumsily he kept his footing in the sand._

_Sound came back to him in a second later with the rush of an approaching dragonborn. Vauruk ducked under a whistling blow, then threw himself forward with a pair of jabs at the cracks in Kaldov's middle. The dragonborn sucked in a breath of pain, but those red eyes burned; a knee hurtled at Vauruk. He leapt up, kicked off the dragonborn's shoulders to launch into the air._

_Gravity beckoned to bring him back into the sand. His body was leaden. His battered snout throbbed; blood was bitter on his tongue. He could feel it: the soft of sleep closing around him._

_But so too, it seemed, was it closing around Kaldov. Ferocity contorted his features. One more hit and it was over._

_Vauruk clenched his fist, knuckles slick with blood. One more. Just one more. This was it: his day. His time. Tournament after tournament he fought, tournament after tournament victory eluded him. And now in the finals, he was in his way. Kaldov Golalud. Goddamn beast of a brawler who hit like a troll and took blows like a boulder. Rival. Friend._

_But today was the day. Vauruk was done with second place, done with watching Kaldov lift the prize. Today Vauruk took him down._

_He roared and plunged, shot at Kaldov like an arrow with an extended leg at its point._

_"An incredible recovery by the warrior bat—Golalud's nearly done, you can see it on his face! And here comes Vauruk with a kick, and Golalud's leaping up to meet him! This is it!"_

This is a page from a comic that wolfmirage(https://inkblot.art/profile/wolfmirage) and I did for ArtFight 2023. It stars my bat boy Vauruk the Formidable and wolfmirage(https://inkblot.art/profile/wolfmirage)'s Kaldov Golalud. We intend to upload the pages of this series cooperatively, alongside the accompanying writing, over the next few days. The content will include violence and mild gore, and pages containing the latter will be tagged as such when warranted.
