THE COURT OF GOOD OR EVIL IS NOW IN SESSION
"Order in the court!" the judge bangs his gavel before turning to the witness stand a fixing a withering glare on me. The courtroom is quiet enough to hear a pin drop before he dramatically clears his throat and begins his speech.
"Today, we, in the Court of Good or Evil, are gathered to judge whether Imperial Princess Winter Royberg de la Erudian-" he begins in a monotonous tone.
"Or Maria Lopez for those who aren't caught up on the latest chapters-" I chime in helpfully despite his glare.
"It's been 157 chapters. If they aren't caught on that your name is Winter, then that means they never got past the first chapter," he corrects angrily.
"Hmph. Fake fans," I turn my nose to the gathered crowd in the courtroom, prompting disapproving whispers and flashes of a camera. I wink at them, before remembering that they can't see my eyes behind the dramatic, oversized pair of sunglasses I have on for my trial today.
