RE: The Ticketmaster

They say that power corrupts and this political story explores the consequences on friendship.

Little did Richard know that Kelvin had ambitions of becoming Arla’s ruler. The election to choose a new ruler was close and plans were underway on all sides. Kelvin had been strategically plotting with Richard’s opposition to overthrow him. They didn’t want Richard to go for a second tenure.

It looks like the food crisis did not help Richard. I like your interpretation of the prompt ticket in this instance. I would have liked to read more about the "ticketing" process because I am not familiar with it, so I don't know the extent of Richard's mismanagement (though I can I can imagine it was a disaster).

I enjoyed reading your story.
