Mist was just walking away after seeing many of his members die in front of his doorstep.

After missing one of the main aggressors who was cowardly hiding behind a wall of bodyguards he decided to gather his thoughts and bring his story to the streets.

My life started when i was only a young lad and joined an organization by the name of October's very Own. I was a timid lad and only was there to make the best of myself and serve my leader Drake. Not too long after he was killed by the same person who turned on my own family earlier this evening. However that was not a surprise.

After Drake's death I went to the city where my grandfather had a long life serving the city leader of Tetley so i decided to check some of the side operations with the 1/2lbers burger organization. The RHM of this organization had been a strong relation to my grandfather and father. Thus decided i started to earn my stripes in Detroit. After some time there I was asked to set up my own operations in order to accommodate the expanding needs to house Detroit gangsters. Gimp promised me an opportunity to show my worth to the city.

I invited some of his own members he vouched for, got some strong people from the city leader Tetley and recruiting some more new arrivals to this life of crime.

Building a tight knit group was something i was passionate about, i also actively build relations to the other family leaders operating out of detroit and ensured a properly maintained list of renegade mobsters for the Detroit crime families as well as setting up plans for competitions between the crime families in Corktown.

Yet despite all of these efforts, without having any real demands except to be kept safe and supported as long as I was a family leader in Detroit, i support and gave my all to this city. Despite the fact my grandfather did the same but like his leader Johnnycage he was cast aside like trash.

Cast aside like many of us in the past few months, Elodin, JohnnyCage, Talia, TonyAllachi, Hush, Skorpeon, Hustlinhoe, Drake, Ragnarok, Schredar and others i can't remember this quickly.

Now I'm sitting here writing this statement while my own Godfather has vouched to kill me despite having done nothing wrong and at the early age that myself and all my members were, they were removed for what? That we are dangerous, ... i just missed shooting 1 of the 6 most powerful people in this country, how would i be able to war all 6 at the same time???

I bet many of you read this, laugh at it and shrug and continue onwards, but seriously even the gods are unhappy with the lack of respect, decency and complete inaptitude that the current city leaders have shown. City leaders who don't care about anyone, not even their own auths, they hardly are leaving their office. Even when the gods demand their public appearance so that the country can at least thrive and have some contact with them, they balk and complain that spending 3 hours per day outside of their office is unreasonable and they are too busy to do that.

Seriously, we are all part of the problem, but we can also become part of the solution.
