Competition: When the Consul's Away, his Members Will Play

Finished
When the Consul's Away, his Members Will Play

Loyalty can take many forms, and has many interpretations. You can be loyal to yourself, or to an ideology. But what happens if the thing that you were loyal to, disappears? Locke's departure from Naga Sadow's leadership has left a power vacuum. This is surely a troublesome time for the Clan.

Prompt:
What will your character do? Will they take advantage of the situation? Will they pledge their loyalty to the Proconsul? Will they attempt something that they would normally never attempt?

Write a piece of fiction, at least 500 words in length (no maximum) and regale us with how your character would act in this situation.

Grading Criteria:

Grading will be based on the Fiction Rubric.
