Ah, it's quite obvious, if you stick around long enough, Sasha. You see, this is the standard protocol for a quote-unquote "murdergame". People are dumped in a relatively sealed location, in this case apparently sealed by floodlights because giving people hope of escaping to make an example of them when they try is apparently not good enough, and ordered to kill each other. In this case, it appears we are voting, and whoever gets the most votes will immediately be made dead, presumably.
Nerva makes what seems to be an attempt to shrug, but it's fairly difficult to be sure with how little he moved his shoulders.
That is simply the way of the world. Certainly these things are rare enough, but they do make headlines when they happen, usually. Why, I believe there are records of such practices of these murdergames dating back to the Armenian Empire. (Or the kingdom of greater armenia if you prefer to call it that.) Of course, amateurs like this particular one are foolish enough to allow an apparently normal cat to play, probably because they couldn't get an actual target to fill that slot. King Mithradates would laugh, were he not dead for over two thousand years.
