Colleseum Opens Today! (RP)

A Glorious morning for the Chariots to start racing. The crowds having been gathering since dark waiting for a good spot to watch the Glory of their color win the races today. The factions as always are separated, the police making sure there is no blood spilled except what ends up on the track today.

There are spaces arranged around the main box for those visiting delegates who wish to enjoy a morning or afternoon just watching the fast pace work of man and beast careening along a dirt track.

News of Rhodias acceptance into the UN only make this racing day even more exciting. The Charioteers are getting ready to start the mornings races. The procession of the chariots and their dancers and acrobats is always a sight to behold. First to been seen is Appollos of the Yellows. The Cry "GLORY TO THE YELLOWS" can be heard by all from the yellow faction. Appollos is followed close by Jestarius of the Reds. The cry "GLORY TO THE REDS" is just as deafening from the red faction. The two first Charioteers are followed by the seconds and the lesser colors the greys for the reds and orange for the yellow.

Racing will start in about an hour, giving the emperor enough time to drop the white cloth and make his usual grand entrance.
