Pristine Panem | The Poison Paradise

The 50th Hunger Games was the year of the Second Quarter Quell. As a reminder that two rebels died for every Capitol citizen, twice the number of regular tributes were to be sent into the Games: two girls and two boys per district, for a total of 48 tributes. The arena was the most breathtaking place imaginable. The golden Cornucopia sat in the middle of a sweet-smelling green meadow, and the sky was azure blue with fluffy, billowing white clouds. The meadow stretched for miles, and far in the distance, there were woods on one side, and a snowcapped mountain on the other, which was later revealed to be a deadly volcano. It was built in the shape of an eye, with the Cornucopia acting as the pupil, the meadow making up the iris, and the mountain and forest terrain narrowing to points on the north and south sides to form the whites of the eye. This reflected how the Capitol was always watching. Victor: Haymitch Abernathy [District 12]
