A place he knew as he had been there on one separate occasion to see some of the grueling sparring matches. It hadn't fascinated him in the least how claws ripped and tore into flesh and he merely watched as if bored by the occasion. Brutality had never set well with him and when one opponent had went down was when the slave had looked away. But that was how things just were and he never commented on it but today he was just cleaning the place up before some other members came in for training. It had taken him a while to find a few small scrubbers for the floor but he had manage and it took him even longer to go about filling up buckets of water. Though the river was close by and that helped him out a bit. As he was bringing in his fifth bucket of water to set down with the others he admired the outside of the pyramid. Pink marble hues shifting over the exterior before he entered and gazed at the dragon like pillars that gave the training grounds a sort of grandeur to it. To the long legged beast it was something to behold. Well, if it wasn't for the blood stains all on the ground.
A light sigh left him as he set the bucket down and he picked up one of the scrubbers, dropping it in one of the buckets. Well the place wasn't going to get cleaned on it's own and he proceeded to move around after getting his scrubber well doused. Lucky for him it didn't seem to be too much and he set to scrubbing the flooring, paws pushing and pulling over a rather thick stain of blood. It made the water run red in no time and he frowned a bit, the smell of old iron hitting his nostrils. A fluttering in his heart began but it was something he was used to, an old need he had pushed aside long ago. Though his tongue swiped over his teeth behind closed lips he pushed his scrubber back into the bucket and then back onto the floor with fresh water as he continued to clean up the mess. His throat felt a little tight though and he closed his eyes for a moment to control himself before he flicked his long, thick forked tail gently through he air. He could get through this and even if he couldn't he'd still have to do it. But as he turned to the right to get at the spot at a different angle his tail accidentally knocked over two of his buckets full of water, sending it everywhere. A groan left the canine like creature as long ears shifted. "Great..."
