It was hard to tell the expression on the face of the king. Honos did not have a traditional face, so Cole could not tell anything, but still he was sure the king looked like he had just swallowed a mouthful of lime water. Or perhaps something that was just too big to swallow.
But even at that time, Cole knew without a doubt that Tehila had been merciful and fair. What she had offered really didn't take anything away from the Central Glade residents. Basically, it was no different from the system that governments around the world have. There was a tax on everything, whether you're buying or selling. But when you think about it, depending on just how many people live in the central Glade, Raenvale, as Honos had called Raen Valley (a more suitable name by the way), would soon be sitting on a tidy sum of money and resources.
