The council looked smug on their table as they watched the tumult of emotions that passed through my face as I watched the crowd."Alpha Manuel!"Someone shouted from the crowd."Long live Alpha Manuel!"Another rose to cheer.And the rest stood chanting.Soon the room is filled with eruptions of cheers and claps as they chorused their answer.
