Chapter 3!As I'm still watching the chickens, they start fighting among themselves over some food. It seems the moment of optimism is gone.
That's such a comical opener!

Priorities!

Those players are worse than Wolf!

I love that they've really adopted him - teasing and nickame and all!

That's so sweet, too! It's really great how many different kinds of love you captured in this story.
If I disappear again, I don't want any city to fall into the kind of chaos Betinho described. That, I suspect, is something the whole world needs to hear and learn.
Powerful broader context here!
