The Festival of the Arena was famous in Estark, the city located in Kush in the Domains, during which wizards from the five Houses fought many magical duels. This yearly event attracted thousands of people from all Domains and beyond (even from Corondor and Tamingazin).
In the long history of Kush, the games on Arena gradually became more and more violent. During the 998th Festival, Garth One-eye returned to the city to take his revenge due to the events of the Night of Fire. His actions led to the events known as the Time of Troubles. After these days, the games returned to their original form — peaceful contest of magical skills.[1]
