After greeting these men whom he had threatened over the past few days and forced into the situation that had brought him there today, Zac thanked them for their agility.
"People often talk about the slowness of politicians to make changes and improvements in society, but now I see this is an unfounded reputation. You are serious men who will fulfill the agreements necessary for the good of the city." Zac smiled as he spoke out loud.
"You have done well, hehe. Today we seal our partnership for a better future for Walney!"
The five men smiled bitterly as they raised their drinking glasses in the air, unable to do anything but follow Zac's lead.
