At Malakai's words, a chill gripped the entire hall. Grinner's eyes widened so much it was a wonder they remained in their sockets.
It was one thing to go against the words of a Vein, another to go against the words of a Pulse. On both occasions, death was expected, swift and certain.

The consequences were that insane.
The Sovereign was directly in charge of the training camp, the one who had declared and personally made its rules.
