"Yes, it is. But we need to find a quiet place to discuss your condition and possible solutions since it has gotten severe and needs to be dealt with immediately," Wyatt continued to lie in public but decided to tell Marcy the truth in private.
However, getting confirmation from Wyatt, Marcy suddenly broke into tears, puzzling the onlookers. Brain and Daisy did not know why their sister was crying and looked at her in concern. Soon, controlling her tears and emotions, Marcy replied, "Headmaster said that my mother suffered from a similar condition and ultimately succumbed to it. If only there was someone as knowledgeable and generous as you present back then maybe she would not have died."
Listening to Marcy the onlookers nodded in understanding. Most of them knew what she was talking about as they or their friends had suffered something similar. Though their condition was not as unique as Marcy\'s, even though the card world had a proven solution to their condition, no one was willing to give it to them for free. They were starting to understand what the \'Hope of South\' was. Like Wyatt, even the Southerners were still figuring out what the title \'Hope of South\' meant.
Anna\'s mother used Wyatt\'s achievements to justify his title \'Hope of South\' to the general public by painting a better tomorrow. However, she never told them what a better tomorrow would be like. How the \'Hope of South\' would lead them to it. Like every politician in history, Anna\'s mother just sold them a dream but never exactly told them how it was possible except for pointing out who was going to lead them there, the \'Hope of South.\'
"Marcy, let us not waste time on what could have been and deal with the matter at hand. You heard Master Wyatt right, your condition is severe let us deal with it first," Diana spoke up, not bothering to console Marcy she asked her to stop looking back and continued forward. At least Marcy knew her mother did not abandon her and had a stable orphanage to grow in, Diana had neither.
"Yes, Madam Diana," Marcy nodded. Seeing Marcy pull herself together, Diana said, "Master Wyatt, let me lead you to a quiet place where you can discuss her condition and solutions."
"No, need. Lead us to the gymnasium. I can meet with the employees and talk with Marcy at the same time," Wyatt said planning to show his trusted employees another miracle.
Sometimes people did not need to be rewarded or recognized for their work, it was enough if they knew they were working for something bigger than themselves. That was what most of the employees wanted from Wyatt. They needed to know that their little struggle and sacrifice were part of something bigger and greater. They might not be able to become great but a part of them was part of something great. Just like how teachers and parents take pride in the achievements of their students and children.
Wyatt planned to use Marcy to give them that assurance. After all, the only way for what he had built to last beyond him or in his absence was if he could get his employees\' help. Otherwise, everything Wyatt did and built would vanish with Wyatt. A Dynasty that could fall with its ruler can never be considered strong.
Not that Wyatt was preparing for things after his death, he was preparing for the time when he would take the battle to the Dark realm. He could only continue to fight in the Dark realm when he knew everything was alright back home. For that to be possible it was not enough that he trusted his people but his people should also trust him.
Today Anna\'s mother was set on making him \'Hope of the South\' but come tomorrow if she were to make him \'Villian of the South\' the public opinion should not bend with her but oppose her. That was what Wyatt was after now. He knew he could not control everyone\'s opinion but by doing little things like this he could ensure the opinion of those that were in his favor would continue to remain in his favor. Which could be enough to keep his dynasty strong even in his absence.
"Sure, Master Wyatt," Diana nodded. Then, Wyatt gently set Bloodette and Daisy down saying, "You guys go play without any worry. I promise I will help your sister get better."
Daisy and Bloodette nodded in understanding, but Brain yelled, "No, I want to come too." Only to be hit on the head by Daisy and dragged away by her. He struggled but Daisy was stronger. After all, despite her young age, Diasy already had achieved six percent active control. If she was fed a small dose of low-grade silver milk powder regularly then she might awaken before turning ten years old. She was very talented and would make a strong card apprentice unlike Brain, who had only one percent active control.
After the kids left Wyatt and Field Marshal followed Diana and Marcy to the gymnasium. As soon as they exited the dining hall, the children who were eating their fill were no longer interested in the food but engaged in a heated discussion about \'Hope of the South\' and the silver milk powder subsidies. They all hoped that the Southern royal family would announce the silver milk powder subsidies as fast as possible. So that they had better chances of awakening as Card apprentices before they became legal adults and had to leave the orphanage.
Heading to the gymnasium, the Field Marshal spoke, \'I can\'t believe you are planning to use the poor girl as a prop.\'
\'Funny, considering how you are using this matter to get something from me. Speak, what is it?\' Wyatt replied fully aware of the Field Marshal\'s intentions.
\'Nothing, all I wanted to say was since you plan on using the girl as your prop do not cheap out in treating her condition,\' the Field Marshal revealed. She was only seeking benefits for Marcy who had no idea that Wyatt was planning to use her.
\'Have you ever seen me hold back in any project I have taken interest in?\'
