The following day Henrietta had gathered all of the citizens within the Capital to make an announcement. Many people were feeling uncomfortable as they had experienced so much in the past few days. They had lost so much, and some of them even more.
Those that had killed during Nyarlom's sick game were standing at one side. Some of them were proud of surviving and doing what they did, others felt ashamed and were lowering their heads, some of them felt like they hadn't done anything wrong as they needed to survive.
Some of the children whose parents forced them to kill their own fathers and mothers had become orphans and were cowering and crying at a corner. Those that still had one parent left were having their own difficulties. Their surviving parent were treating them differently. Even though the parents knew it was their decision to do this, it was still hard to look at the person who had killed their significant other, even if it was their child.
