Peeta nodded, keeping his eyes on her, taking in every reaction.

"Prince Tristan. The official story is that we've been brought here to be his mate. We're called 'candidates,' and he hasn't selected any of the candidates who have been brought here, for a long time now."

"Candidates? That isn't much different than tributes." She said with a small scoff. It only added further to her certainty that the games never truly ended. The arena changed, but it was still the same rules. Only one could be the victor. Only this time, it ended with marriage.

It made her think of Finnick. Of what Snow made him do. "I won't." She vowed. "I won't be given to this prince. Not by anyone."

That same thought had dawned him when he first arrived.

"Something is different." Peeta looked out across the ocean, then back at Katniss. "The Nysgods, they aren't gamemakers. They ... they aren't using us for amusement."

At least not that he could see.

"I've heard from other candidates that the Prince doesn't want a mate. That he's being forced into this as much as we are."

She didn't respond to it. As far as she could tell, she was being put on display once more. These Nysgod were no better than the Capital, but they were hardly up front in their designs as Snow was. "I never thought I would miss the frankness of that regime." She muttered, shaking her head.

"Well, that's a relief." It was hard to know what to say to this, to any of it. It was so surreal, but also so familiar. It was though the last few years of her life never happened. That they were facing yet another arena.

"No one else from Panem is here?" She asked.
