 From stage right, **RAINCLOUD** descends. Adult anthro dragon, five-eleven, purple base with warm-yellow segmented underbelly catching the house lights; a single pair of curving horns rising from above and behind a pair of sideways-set bovidae ears (cattle/goat cast, soft and leaf-shaped); magenta-violet bat wings folded high; a thick purple tail lined down the top by a single overlapping row of leaf-shaped scales (scutes, not braid), leaf-spade tuft trailing across the stones behind him. Green eyes, fixed. He moves with the uncanny precision of a creature who built the building.

 The entry ceremony uses **two distinct rooms** plus a **dreamscape void** between them. Keep this geography straight:

- **The courtroom.** Rain's private throne chamber. Catmull-Baroque ornament on concrete substrate, MOTD frame high on the back wall, obsidian throne on a dais, one throne-room pet (**BD** — cursed-cute liquid-flesh dragonling) on a cushion beside the throne. No bleachers in here. No sand floor. No bubble. The contestants are placed on the lower stone circle in front of the dais for the rules speech, not in the colosseum.

No bleachers in here. No sand floor. No bubble. The contestants are placed on the lower stone circle in front of the dais for the rules speech, not in the colosseum.
 - **The colosseum.** A separate full-stadium amphitheatre — ringed stone bleachers around a central sand floor, subscriber-count banners, emote gargoyles, the gilded jumbotron on brass rigging above, the **bubble on its iron cradle** at the center of the sand. This is where the chorus (ExperimentA1ic3, the noncriticals, pirate-protogen, foxy, basedgymrat, miclbero, cameoqueen86, rayne8856, Bezel the Clock, and the rest of the Gumball-stitched crowd) sits. Rain is **not** in the colosseum — he watches from the throne next door.
 - **The wall-reveal.** At Rain's cue during the rules speech, the **right-hand wall of the courtroom dissolves into transparency**, silently, from a single point outward. Ornament outlines remain ghosted at the perimeter; the stone frame holds; only the middle has gone clear. Beyond the transparency is a total dreamscape **black** — no stars, no horizon, no atmosphere — with the colosseum **floating unsupported** at middle distance, dream-logic.
 - **The descending staircase.** Also at Rain's cue, a broad flight of gilded-edged stone steps **sinks into existence** from the floor to the right of the throne and continues out through the newly-transparent wall, arcing gently down and away across the void toward the colosseum. No railings, no supports, no anchor; it simply is. Contestants descend it in single file (Azure first per Rain's order).
