It was always the same story.Always.
Give a fish an empty pond and it immediately fancies itself the leviathan of a forgotten sea. Yarzat had that effect on criminals,its freedom, its looseness, its lack of any true orderin the low echelons of the pyramid, gave men illusions of grandeur.
There were no established families to appease, nohigher power to bribe, no great overlord demanding tribute, Laedio had taken care of all of them.
So..as long as you kept yourself tucked beneath the city's awareness, you could pretend the world lay open before you.
Pretend to be the most important word of all.
Importance on pretend.
Because once you were found then the emptiness of the pond explained itself.The predators had already eaten everything else.
