A full day passed before the turmoil finally settled. Or rather, it settled as much as it could.
The battle between the elders had continued far longer than anyone had expected. What had begun as a heated disagreement over who deserved Little Bull eventually escalated into one of the largest elder disputes seen in the Outer Court in recent years.
By the time the sun had set, over thirty elders had become involved directly, while another fifty had chosen sides and contributed from the sidelines. It got so bad that the Discipline and Law Division had eventually been forced to intervene.
Several Law Elders arrived personally and suppressed the entire gathering before dragging the offending elders into an emergency hearing. Naturally, the first question they asked was why dozens of respected elders had transformed a meeting hall into something resembling a marketplace brawl.
The answers they received only made things worse.
"A body cultivation genius."
"A unique physique."
