Bab 119: Chapter 119: Sovereignty

 - Imperial Capital.

Late at night, a dragon's roar awakens countless people of the Imperial Capital from their sleep, leaving them confused and dazed, unsure of what's happening.

But a few, like Charl, who's unusually at the Dragon Residence at this time, knew better. This minister held an urgent report, the top line mentioning the "Sealed City."

The Sealed City, Charl's financial stronghold, demanded his attention. He'd been informed immediately when chaos erupted in the city during the Blood Sacrifice.

Unfortunately, when the massive Miasma from the Blood Sacrifice turned into a dome, enveloping the Sealed City, all communications ceased. No information could get in or out.

Anxious, Charl rushed to the Dragon Residence at night, suspecting General Long, who had proposed reforms for the Sealed City at the great hall, might be behind this.
