Not only had Goldie lost her
town and had her bar turned into recovery operation headquarters, but now she
was being forced to cater to the Justices of the Antigone Courts. If this
hadn’t happened because of mass destruction, she would have forced them to take

during town celebrations. A few, Goldie’s favorites, were prominently displayed
behind the bar, over the rows of alcohol. These celebrity photos included
sports heroes, authors, and one of her with Fintan the Bard. She, like most of

worldly manner was majorly attractive. Goldie stared at the picture, fondly
thinking of better days. Captain Prescott pulled her from her reverie.
