Chương 81: Youthhood

The situation looked grim. At this point, the city was on the verge of a rebellion, and it was obvious which side was going to win. Eliseline knew she needed to do something, but what was she supposed to do? Anything she did would look like she was supporting the losing side in favor of a rebellion.
