Legaxy

Anyway, back to the breaking news.

Honestly speaking, at first, I thought the declaration was just a sick joke from Dad since for almost three days — after the night I fainted, we — as a family, were so focused on planning on how to keep the neighborhood safe from the hunting season.

Seeing how big the damage would be and estimating how many lives will be at stake, the Department of Defense — together with the Department of Health of the Hue Kingdom — solidified the decision of suspending the said ball, even if it was hard on the REDless so that we could solely concentrate on protecting the community.

But with just one plea.

Yes, you heard me right...

With just one request to continue from the Mixed Council —after they have learned of my attendance at the ball, which was clearly odd — and everything we plotted on defending both people and property goes to waste.

Ridiculous?

Definitely.

Dangers are lurking everywhere, threats are currently existing, and death tolls will be at their highest when the ball continues to operate.

Yet, thy majesties still agreed to it?

Without even questioning it?

It's a foolish decision, to tell you frankly, and I am still disturbed about it up to date.

What were they thinking?

They were not only risking the lives of their people but also risking the lives of the human race that will be present at the occasion.

And why me, exactly?

This all transpired because of me... But for what reasons?

True that I am a human and a part of the said event's new attendees. Yet, among all the humans invited, why was I the only soul that got the mixed council's attention and even made them appeal for the ball to resume?
