บท 1211: The Forbidden Sacred Lands

-----

A Witch. This country had always this strange belief that there's an evil witch, who is in fault of everything bad happening to the city. Hunger? It's the evil witch's fault. Monsters going wild? The evil witch's fault. Discrimination? Classism? Blame the witch for it.

It is a rather strange thing, this is an island after all, so I suppose it is easy for the government to manipulate its people when there's no other nations trying to intervene or show the inhabitants that there's more to life than blaming someone else for their misfortune or the injustices that are allowed in their society.

Then again, this kind of reminds me of Earth a tiny bit. Politicians really love blaming other people for their own mistakes, don't they? As long as they can keep people busy blaming and hating one another, they'll never turn their heads towards the actual root of their problems.
