Chapter 20: Chapter 20: Report



Arturian finished his story. That was Arturian Noble the Seconds description of the event. After the story was finished, the entire room remained quiet for about five seconds.

That was not enough to get Arturian to leave.

She stared at Arturian, rolled her eyes, then finally paged someone. An officer a few minutes later came to the front a motioned Arturian to come with him.

As Arturian walked away with the officer, he heard the wrinkling of paper as if it were being formed into a ball, the sound as if it hit the bottom of a metal trashcan, and the sound of the secretaries high fiving as if one of them had made a shot from far away.

Just as a slight correction, not everyone actually had dispersed after Arturian told his story that day. There was actually one more person around the corner who stuck around listening for just another minute more before going back to work....
