[center][i][color=8882be]"... and that's why you should vote for me for Vice Mayor of this splendid city!"[/color][/i][/center]

These were the final words of Eric's speech that brought some applause, but obviously not enough to match that to the Incumbent Mayor's speech for reelection. The Vice Mayor barely had any role in office other than to take it's place when the current Mayor passes away, and Eric knew all to well that wasn't going to happen any time soon. After the speech and applause, Eric steps down from the podium and attempts to follow Cinia into the Mayor's office, but gets bombarded with the crowd asking him questions pertaining his purpose in the city and what his goals were. Eric felt these questions were redundant being he had answered these questions in his speech, but what could he do. He uses a bit of speed magic to try and bust through the crowd without slamming any of them into the ground, but eventually gave up as the crowd was too thick.

[color=8882be]"How did she get through all of these people so qui.... oh wait never mind. That was an obvious question in itself. Ugghh mind as well..."[/color] Eric had mumbled to himself before giving in to the questions and started to answer them one by one.

There it was, the booth for the Weiderholung Military. Jessica goes behind the booth and sits on the second chair.

"[i]Hey can you take over for a bit? I've been here since this festival began.[/i]" The person at booth asked.

[color=fff79a]"Sure why not, It's not like this huge crowd gathering won't be a problem at all..."[/color] Jessica said sarcastically. 

"[i]Don't worry, most of them just want to sign up, only a few smart ones will ask questions.[/i]" The person replied back before standing up, saluting to Jessica to which she saluted back, and walked off.

For the most part, he was correct. Most of them just walked up, said hello, and signed up without further questions. Jessica knew not to ask too many questions about their character because they would know if they would be eligible or not if they were able to answer all the questions or not on the application. Some of them asked questions like. "[i]How many do they have per squad?[/i]" or "[i]If women can keep their hair length, then can I?[/i]" Most of which were easy to answer.

[i][color=fff79a]This isn't as bad as I thought. Hopefully the crown get smaller so I can get a break and look at the other booths. I really want to buy that Mechanical Dragonfly over there![/color][/i] Jessica thought to herself looking at the Steampunk booth down two booths.
