Wow, she's really out of the loop. He lowered his right claw and tapped away at the rock, that was conveniently there, thinking how to explain these things... and in cold weather. "how about this, Let us set up a camp fire and I can answer your questions. I tend to stay way from some kingdoms so, my knowledge is very limited on some of those." He turned his head, and noticed the downed tree to his side, dead... almost a year, that will do.
He stood up and lifted both his claws, coming down on the tree several times, breaking it into many pieces he could throw into the fire. "Hurm! There we go." He lifted a few and put them in a small pile, opening his maw and letting loose a torrent of black fire, changing to the normal color of fire when igniting the wood. Now with a fire made and extra wood on hand, he laid back down, causing the ground to shake as he did so. "Now, the Thunderblacks, they are the mountains nearby, filled with dragons, monsters and small isolated villages. I just so happen to have a small den in one of the many scattered caves... As for other kingdoms... well, which do you want to know? coming from a Colosseum, you have probably heard of their names when your opponents are announced."
