Revolt

The next day. The entire nation was peaceful. Snow fell as people walked to their work, carriages wheeled through the streets, guards patrolled the whole city, the marketplace remained busy as usual. It did not even feel like one of the core members of the Rebellion was brutally killed and blatantly displayed to everyone. 

But that would not be the case for long.

Night fell.

The central parts of the city went to sleep while the red light districts, entertainment districts and marketplaces were busy as usual. There were more guards patrolling the entire city. Despite what it looked like at the surface, everyone knew there were terrifying undercurrents surging below the city.

But doubling the guards barely did anything.
