One morning, Mayor Baffels woke up to find a dark mist had descended upon the city.
His first thought was on how the mist would play in the upcoming election. People would look for him to have the answers. Was it caused by pollution? Had there been an explosion? Were their lives in danger?
Baffels would use the opportunity to bolster his leadership credentials during a crisis. He expected it would ensure his reelection.
In the end, he did win, but the hellfire and destruction that were unleashed by his deal with devil made his victory rather pyrrhic in nature.
