Chapter Title: The Fall of the Entitled

Dictator Christiana POV

Christiana stood at the heart of the Control Hall, eyes locked on the high-definition holographic screen before her. Dozens of family crests spun slowly above the heads of the now disgraced nobles. Beneath each, information streamed in: names, assets, properties, businesses, school affiliations, and government connections.

"All noble privileges—terminate them," Chris's voice echoed again through her earpiece, firm and absolute.

She nodded.

"Understood."

Her fingers moved rapidly across her datapad. One by one, the dictator of the Blackwood Union systematically dismantled a dynasty of corruption and entitlement.

Christiana tapped her comms again. "BNN, push this list to the public."

The news anchors began broadcasting the Official Blackwood Disgrace Report, breaking it down family by family.

> "This is justice," Christiana muttered under her breath. "For every child denied a chance because you paid your way through life."

And then she updated the database again:

"All noble family names above are permanently blacklisted from:

Government contracts

Military ranks

State sponsorships

Political offices

and all Empire-backed privileges."

Chris's voice returned.

"Good work, Dictator. Now let's make sure they remember this day as the end of unearned power."

Christiana stood taller.

"Yes, Father."

The purge wasn't just political.

It was personal.

And it was just beginning.
