- What the fuck?! - the guy in a wheelchair just yelled straight up, looking around in pure shock.
Others had a similar reaction, although not so loud. A murmur spread around people, but they were still too confused to do anything, so I seized the moment. Even Leonel and Carmelita were shocked. They knew what was going to happen, but experiencing it was a different beast.
I started by pulling the seed out of my vault, then presented it to the crowd with an open hand.
- Calm down! - I yelled. - I'm gonna explain everything, so shut up!
My rather rude words worked, and I got the silence I so desired.
- What I'm holding in my hand is called the seed. It has to be planted, then nourished to grow into a sapling, which you all probably know under a different name as the mysterious 'The device'. Yes, the same one in Arc or other cities connected by portals to earth.
