The time drew nearer to the final deadline that Capen had set, and the atmosphere in Alfalfa City grew increasingly tense.
What terrified the people of the city even more was that Orlando, in the face of Capen's ultimate warning, had chosen to resist instead of submitting.
Perhaps to outsiders, the city of Alfalfa seemed to be constantly engulfed by chaos and danger, but the local residents saw a sense of order in the chaos, steered by Capen and the Alfalfa City Brotherhood under his command.
But now, this order was about to be disrupted.
The various factions in the city were becoming restless, not just for the priceless bonds, but also for the power over the city.
Under the expectant gazes of many, the final deadline set by Capen finally arrived.
On this day, the sun rose as usual.
