A happy day that would have been for Donotyr turned into sadness as he witnessed his beloved mentor, Fugmius, being murdered in front of him, on the very day that would have been his knighting ceremony.
Donotyr and his friends were currently at the assembly room where Azotha Myruas was currently being proclaimed as the new leader of the rangers.
"I present to you the new leader of the rangers, Azotha Myruas," the Zeltron announcer, Zorrick Maros, proclaimed.
"As the new leader of the rangers, I promise to continue what Fugmius has started by guarding Yirrim from the clutches of the Ignominies and by rescuing the prisoners that the Ignominies had cruelly oppressed!" Azotha declared.
Everyone in the room clapped their hands, except for Donotyr.
"Why aren't you congratulating Azotha?" Zena asked. "She would change the planet of Yirrim for the better by freeing prisoners of the Ignominies, like you may have been.."
"I'm worried about what Azotha will do as a leader. She just had proclaimed herself as a leader, without considering that Fugmius had just died yesterday!" Donotyr said angrily. "I even do not remember that if we ever held a funeral for him. This ceremony is an insult to his memory!"
"Donotyr, just calm down," Vinith said. "We can only judge Azotha as a leader once she begins her term."
"Plus, there will be a feast held in honor of her appointment as the new leader," Zena added.
Donotyr just stormed off the assembly room angrily and went to his room.
