This Town Council seems to have all the voting power, no matter what they say about hearing people's concerns. Well, if they're going to listen, you're going to make the most of your voice.
Arctus makes a low, curious sound. You stroke her head absent-mindedly while you start to think things through.
You thought when you arrived that your main focus would be surviving until Grandma comes back. You didn't stop to think much about what you would be doing in that time—much less that you might have a chance to help stop whatever plans are being made for the forest before they start. How? Well—you have no idea. But maybe this meeting would be a good place to start.
When you start thinking about the meeting, however, something else starts to dawn on you. You may be living alone for now, but you're not the only person in town. Sure, it's a small town, but it's still a town full of people. Even on your quiet street, there are other houses. You have neighbors. And sooner or later, you're going to run into them.
