As Ammy was finishing wrapping up several orders of books, a few wands and some casting sundries for a customer she looked up at the TV in her shop hearing the news that was broadcasted. Dockside Explosion Disrupts Rally, 50+ Dead or Injured is flashed across the bottom of the news channel as the report plays. Customers in the shop pause to watch in a mix of horror and concern. Ammy watched the broadcast with a unsettled calm. Violence had begun in full force as she had feared.

Thanking her customer and assuring them they'll be safe going home if they use a free amulet she gave them, she picked up her phone and called The Sword of Damocles Foundation. A few moments later everyone heard her say.

"Look, we promise to aide everyone under racial oppression. Have you not seen the news today? They are obviously being oppressed if they are getting bombed. Don't split hairs with me. Send out some relief aide to the victims of the blast, that's all I'm directing. Yes. Yes. I'll personally cover it if the board finds it beyond the guidelines of the SDF. Thank you. Next customer please?"

Ammy stood in front of the central fountain of the Market Place in Rhy'Din City. She faced the camera's of several news stations and the microphones recording for many newspapers across the realms. Cameras flashed taking her picture as she stood there with the sunlight and the fountain's water casting an array of light as her back drop. She wore a simple gray gown, belted with a master alchemist's leather belt with many pouches and vials. Her hair trailed like crimson mixed with gold and silver highlights to her waist like a tribute to wars that brought in the wealth of nations as they oft did.

Ammy focused on all of the reporters with golden eyes that sparked with deep intelligence and intensity like molten gold in a crucible.

"Ladies and Gentlemen of all walks and creeds of life and deaht, thank you for asking me to give a public announcement after hearing of my survival in the preliminary race of Gubernatorial Candidates. I will not gloat, nor be proud. Many candidates were noble and of good intent this year and many of their intentions will not be lost to the din of noise this election." Ammy said firmly.

"That said let me address to you all my platform and intentions for running for Governor of Rhy'Din, you may ask questions later this week or catch the Gubernatorial Debate on Friday the 30th. If you want to see some of my platform, come see the Equality Acts meeting on Wednesday the 28th. Otherwise, feel free to ask at gatherings or public appearances. I simply ask one caveat. For security reasons, family time is personal time so if my body guard or others say no to questions, please, refrain and offer me that small bit of courtesy.

My Platform for Elections is based on being: Pro Equality, Pro Choice and Pro Common Sense.

Pro Equality.
I wish for people to view me as their representative for public equality, that they may know they are heard when prejudice arises into violence and they are not ignored.

Pro Choice.
I wish for people to come to me to know that their dreams, goals, ambitions, projects, tasks and missions are never too small, stupid, odd or impossible. That everyone out there has the right to make choices and to receive aide and the tools and help in making their choices come true be it by aide from foundations like the Sword of Damocles, Charities and many other organizations out there.

Pro Common Sense.
I wish for people to know that I will be a fair, common sense Governor in that I know I have no real powers in the matters of settling affairs that erupt. That they will know that if I am to be drug into personal or city issues that a Governor has no say, I will defer to Common Sense and if either party has failed to use Common Sense, let poetic justice be upon their heads.

My intentions for running as Governor this year if elected by you all, the public, is to show you all, as the public that a Governor can be useful to you all if you simply talk to the Governor and share your concerns. Ask your questions. My job is a public servant.

I listen to you all and I work with you all.

I do not rule you.

I do not tell you what to do.

I simply am there to encourage as many as possible to cooperate with each other every day so you all can make your daily pay, spend your money, enjoy your loved ones, have your fun, enjoy your liberties in any fashion and still have a home standing that is not burnt to the ground.

Governors are those who work late into the night, nudging things along when something has stalled, lending a hand when you've fallen and need to get up, a hand fixing a roof, or a charisma to help a wavering cause.

I simply wish to serve you all.

Let me do this, let me help you, use me, talk to me, ask me things, suggest things and let us work as a community.

I will be asking the candidates that did not make the primary if they will me honor them by taking up their causes as part of my Pro Choice segment of my platform. Thank you all for being here. May you all have the day you were meant to have." She said to them all in a Karma Blessing and left the Alchemist's Fire Complex.

Ammy hummed along as she helped her volunteer staff take down any flyers and posters still in the city for her run for Governor. Wouldn't do to leave litter about. She gave handshakes and thanks to those that had helped and assured them it was a well fought shot in the dark and a good run they had. Now it was time that they go back to their normal lives and she went back to sorting out the Safe Zone Project as a citizen.

Everyone was treated to drinks and a hearty 'Dead Dog' party at Cafe Lupe in Den City to treat everyone to some new scenery and the hospitality of the Lupinossai. As it was all said and done, the last volunteer shooed off for home from the impromptu Candidate Office now open rental space for a kiosk again in the Alchemist's Fire Complex, Ammy leaned on the empty glass counters walking through the memories of the campaign she ran.

They had some good points, got people to voice concerns where possible and shed light on how people felt about violent disagreements over being different and scared of being viewed different. Now she wondered what the year was going to hold? Was anything really going to change or was it all just going to tick on in the same old 'look the other way' fashion the city always functioned. Claws tapped the glass lightly. Well it wouldn't do her any good to mull over that, it wasn't her headache or worry now, she'd thrown in hard, put her shoulders into things and still came up short, but she did survive it all.

She rubbed at her itchy lip stitches and lightly swollen left eye now. She had run against nine others, was found semi-valuable enough to make it to third place both times, no easy feat and came out on top of a Gubernatorial Cage Match. So, a good chunk of her focus back squarely in her hands again, what was her next move?

Ammy pushed off from the glass counter and left the little empty kiosk. That was simple. She was still a resident and citizen of Rhy'Din. She'd do what they all did. Make Rhy'Din a better place in whatever capacity she could in her own little ways and help others in their own fights to do the same. She whistled softly walking out of the complex to just stroll the city to clear her head, the pink Gubernatorial Hotline Cell Phone given to her by her assistant was held in her hand. She typed out one last message to all, hit send and let a small ball of sunlight erupt in her paw. The devices melted under the sunny assault was nothing more than pinkish ash that blew into the wind. She whistled more as she continued to walk the streets.
