[The Judge has been Appointed.]

The words echoed in Ajax's mind and forced his eyes open to see a glowing green board hanging in mid air with a single line of white text. The harsh combination of colors triggered a reflex and made him close his eyes after the image had burned itself into his retina.

He stayed completely still as he came to terms with the fluorescent board of text that hung in front of him before opening his eyes again however the scene did not change. Although it was far from ordinary Ajax could not pull himself from the feeling of a lucid dream and did not panic.

He stood and went to the washroom to wash his face then went back to his bed to go back to sleep, figuring that the fastest way to wake up from such a realistic dream was to sleep however things just continued to progress.

" What the hell. What do you mean I've been Appointed Judge?"

With his emotions forcibly calmed, he spoke slowly and clearly without really expecting an answer but was pleased when he got one.

[ As the old generation of the enforcers Of the law aged and weakened ,crime flourished and the law was put in danger of being overthrown. Realizing this they Gave up their powers to the system in order to chose worthy successors to uphold]

He read with a wry smile thinking,

Of all the places for the law to be reinstated they chose to start with the Recrwer?

The Recrwer was originally a town in which criminals of all kinds were deposited after the death sentence was officially outlawed by the world. In theory it was nice because no matter how much protest the death sentence caused there were still criminals who had committed unforgivable crimes and not enough prisons in the world to keep them.

However then came the problem…...The children of said criminals, born after their parents were jailed.

There were some protests earlier on about taking us out and returning us to 'proper society' but in the end the few that were sent out soon returned with their own crimes or simply because they couldn't handle the judgment and harsh treatment from the outside and the protests slowly died down.
