The room was tense—filled with high-ranking officials, governors from various states, federal ministers, and key stakeholders.

Ambassador Greer cleared his throat.

The room was dead silent as he continued.

"The level of insecurity we are witnessing is unprecedented! Never in recent history has PortVarter fallen into such chaos. And let’s be honest—this descent into anarchy began the moment Mr Douglas Garnett was removed from power."

    The moment Douglas Garnett saw his men collapse, a cold fury surged through his veins. Were they dead? He couldn’t be sure.His remaining officers rushed forward, checking their fallen comrades.“They’re still breathing,” one of them whispered.Douglas peered down. The two officers were alive, but barely. Their breaths were shallow, their bodies weak—as if life itself was slipping away from them.Despite the dire situation, Douglas laughed. A deep, confident laugh.Gregg Wilder narrowed his eyes.“You can do your worst,” Douglas said, meeting Gregg’s gaze fearlessly. “But you can be sure of one thing—you’ll end up in prison. Soon!”At those words, Gregg burst into laughter.“A fool, that’s what you are!” Gregg sneered. “You think you can imprison me? Me? Gregg Wilder?!”He spat on the floor in disgust.“More powerful men than you have tried to bring me down,” Gregg continued, his voice filled with venom. “And where are they now? Dead!

He knew the risk of what he was about to do.Gregg wasn’t just another criminal—he was a sorcerer, a man whose reach extended beyond Remalia and into PortVarter.

    Under Douglas Garnett’s leadership, PortVarter flourished like never before. Crime rates plummeted, businesses thrived, and the people finally felt safe in their own homes. His strategic measures and firm hand in governance made him a figure of admiration and the acting governor, Charles Dennis, made sure everyone knew it. At every official event, he proudly showcased Douglas, recognizing him as the backbone of PortVarter’s stability.One Friday, Douglas was deep into an official assignment when his phone buzzed with a notification.

    “You are being charged with defamation and the fabrication of false evidence against Mr Douglas Garnett. While he was in prison, you both conspired with former Governor Clarke to mislead the public, tarnish his reputation, and ensure his wrongful imprisonment—all for your selfish political gain.”Detective Hayes took a step forward, his voice carrying the weight of the law.“Furthermore, Marvin Drake, you falsely claimed credit for the recent peace in PortVarter, deceiving the public into believing that your administration was responsible. However, irrefutable evidence proves that Mr Douglas Garnett, and not you, was the one who restored security to this state.”The grand hall, which had moments ago been filled with laughter, fell into a deafening silence as the police officers’ words sank in.Marvin's face paled and his confidence evaporated.“Defamation?
