Widespread Panic!
Hours later...
After dawn in Athela, the population of this regional capital awoke to a day that was supposed to be a day of farewells to King William Walker.
On this day in question, all commerce in this city had dawned closed, with many people leaving their homes to participate in the royal procession.
It was a holiday in the capital of the Kingdom of the Waves, and many could not miss the opportunity to have a peaceful day, which, yes, would be a farewell, but which could also mark the beginning of a new era.
It was terrible for the ordinary population when a powerful specialist died. After all, in a world where power was everything, specialists like William practically maintained the weaker ones' quality and standard of living.
