As Cedric and his group neared the Mayor's home, he took a deep breath and sighed. The corruption in his country was truly far reaching.
Sometimes he wished that they could instill their own people, men and women that they knew had the will and determination to serve.
Sadly it was also at those times that Cedric was reminded of a dark past in their country's history. A time when people thought the same as him, when rich businessmen decided that they could and should control the politics of their own country.
A group among the old rich that history had labeled as the Rajas, or kings. They were some of the richest and most powerful families around. At one point the Reyeses had even been involved.
Luckily for Cedric, the Reyeses decided to leave when this group of rich individuals began plotting to install people they believed worthy of being public servants.
