The baron on the world, and the viscount he reported to, were executed. They had both seen the report of a rape and murder and had completely ignored it. They felt one Tier 2 girl was worth far less than a mayor’s son.
The whole debacle was preventable. Lizar had only wanted justice, and when he was denied that right, he took matters into his own hands. Rape and murder were illegal from Tier 50 to Tier 1. If anyone had done their job properly, 32,756,621 people would still be alive.
Liz wouldn’t let Matt follow down that path. What had brought on Matt’s frustration had been much less severe, but his eyes had been the same.
She wouldn’t let a small issue get escalated. She already had messages for her parents and uncle Manny, with the recording of the entire incident, waiting to be sent.
