A week had passed since Lucien arrived in Rhamira. A week since the Guildmaster announced his intention to visit some Mirror and file his report.
And Lucien was growing tired of waiting for his Identity card and Adventurer card.
But in the past week, he hadn't been idle. He'd discovered more about that Mirror business, for instance.
Apparently, Rhamira boasted a unique governmental system.
The nation was ruled by a council called the Council of Ascendants—a group of players and NPCs who had crossed the Third Ascension Phase. This meant they had evolved at least three times and were in their level 300s, though he didn't know the specific requirements for NPCs but assumed they were the same.
As for players, they started as the cream of the Adventurers Guild and climbed the ladder into the nation's politics, which meant they had to begin as Mirrors.
Rhamira had seven Mirrors, considered the Voice of the people—influencers, players or NPCs who spoke to and for the people.
