บท 259: Unseen Chains

The hall fell completely silent as Terra began to move forward; the sounds of her footsteps seemed to dominate the entire space, her eyes locked on the immobilized woman in the crowd.

Soon, whispers quickly erupted among the onlookers as they watched the dragon general advancing, a touch of curiosity, fear, and confusion spreading through the crowd.

"Why is... she going after her like that?"

"Isn't that woman a Union official... isn't she one of the good guys?"

"Wait, is Alister's dragon going against the Union now?"

A reporter in the crowd murmured to his colleague, "Are they really turning on the Union?"

An older reporter shook his head in disbelief. "This isn't right... If they're truly going rogue, the Union won't let this slide."

Others tried to reassure themselves. "No, she can't be disobeying the Union. Alister wouldn't let it go that far... right?"
