“Stark—before the Ascent, you came through the city. There was a man, a deserter…” The man that Stark and Cratos tore apart before the public. The man who threatened me at my fight the night before. Stark lifts his chin. “Yes,” he says simply. Yes, he killed him because the man threatened me. Which means Stark was there that night, watching me fight, somewhere in the crowd.
He was there the whole time
