A subtle silence fell over the arena. 

While many here could be considered to have only come for the fun of the spectacle, there was a matter of perspective needed as well. 

This arena could sit millions. However, the population of a single planet was counted in the tens of billions. The number of habitable planets in just a single quadrant could be counted in the hundreds. The number of quadrants in a single galaxy were numerous and the number of galaxies in a single Sector could be counted in the dozens. 

When these numbers are multiplied out, there were easily hundreds of trillions of people in a single Sector, and even that number was far too small to adequately paint the truth of the situation. Any yet… 

There were only millions who could afford to be here.
