"The Imperial Law had granted mercy to everyone, from peasants to those aristocrats and the royal family. We had believed that life is precious and everyone deserved a chance despite their atrocious deeds, in hopes they would change and find the right path in life. Although there were a few who takes advantage of our just and merciful law, we still believed justice will prevail!"
Joaquin stood in front of the many people gathered in the heart of the capital. Standing tall on the raised platform. He kept his chin up whilst making a speech.
"The eighth prince, Carlos Imperial, was arrested for countless felonies and received mercy. However, as he was being transported outside of the capital, he had attempted to escape and killed almost all the knights escorting his carriage before he met his doom." He huffed faintly, glancing at the crowd.
Joaquin then walked out of the stand before him, standing in the open.
