Jerrik Edenbridge, the candidate to represent Yttria if it’s accepted into the World Forum, expressed his belief that the anger was really just rallied up by president in order to get the defense bill passed.
“Look, I don’t think he’s a bad guy or even a bad president, but he took advantage of a deadly situation to get what he wanted. And besides, it’s no wonder that our cries for peace were ignored. We’re basically a baby here. We hadn’t interacted in eternal affairs for over a century, and still have barely done anything these past 7 years. For us to all of a sudden demand peace in a war we didn’t even get affected by is disgusting. If you look outside, people are going out and about like nothing happened. What about all that silence and anger Rico was talking about? Where’s all that hatred? We cannot trust Rico anymore. We’ve seen the damage he can do when he gets into our heads.”
The President of Yttria has yet to make any comment.
