Star Town.

The upper hall of the Administration Hall.

This was Rod's exclusive office, a spacious room filled with classical decorations from the 1500-year-old Starry Kingdom, the thick air of history making it hard for anyone who entered to breathe.

In the very center of the room sat a large, heavy mahogany desk; Rod was seated in a big chair, feeling very troubled.

Chief Governor Mandler sat across from him, his face a mass of wrinkles squeezed together, his eyes full of pleading.

"This... Lord Mandler, it's not that I don't want to help…"

Mandler jumped up immediately, "I have six granddaughters, and they all admire you very much..."

"Alright, alright!"

Rod immediately stopped him.

"Let me finish, Star Town now has 900,000 people, to take in another four million would bring the town's population close to five million."
