Low murmur (ch. 30)


"Given nature and consequences of recent disclosures to the public, it is the decision of this government to suspend all political activities for the present time.

“All Delegates are to return to their respective districts and work to maintain relative security of the general populace,” finished the Chair of the national Delegation in a grave tone.

A low murmur broke out in the Council Chamber.

“Well Mark, this nation has seen a good run. I fear we will meet again under much duress, and witness its end. Good luck,” said an old friend and mentor, turning towards Mark and Bernard.
