章 984: Celina

A hole left unfilled; a wound left unhealed. Gophy's departure and her changing sides had a more prolonged effect on the Shadow Realm. Those of disinterest in politics could have cared any less. The effects weren't felt either – if one were to ask if the leadership or a major change had taken place, an ignorant, '-not really?' would have escaped their lips. In many ways – the sudden departure gave ample time for reflection. The guardian deities, their students, and those around them – from the top to the middle, everyone thought. As most of life follows along a linear passage – time would handle the rest. Trouble in paradise, such was to become the name of the short-lived period. 

Far from the godly realm; upon completion of many deeds – camera flashes point anew to the growing capital-city of Rosespire. Her reputation and prestige lay in the balance of a gruesome murder.
