A light headache attacked her when her light brown pupils exposed to the sudden brightness in her surrounding. She then adjusted her eyesight to the change of the surrounding and realised that she was no longer drowning in the water. Ever since she woke up from her coma, she would be dreaming the same nightmare of when she fell asleep.
"Hey, you're already awake." The attending nurse greeted her with a warm smile and continued to accommodate her needs. The nurse was the same staff that had been assigned to her ward since she woke up so Mia was quite comfortable with that nurse.
"Do you want to drink some water?"
Mia nodded her in agreement. Her throat felt a bit dry after sleeping.
The nurse supported the back of her head from behind and slowly slanted her body to allow her swallowing water down her dry throat smoothly. She felt an instant relief like a huge stone being lifted from her chest once the water hydrated her oesophagus.
"Do you feel any pain anywhere?"
Mia shook off her head indicating her condition was getting better after being hit at the back of her head.
"That's good! Let me know if you feel uncomfortable afterwards. You're extremely lucky that you survived. Treasure that life of yours. It may be gone easily next time. Are you bored? I can tell you a story before my shift ends while waiting for the next nurse to check on you."
Seeing that Mia didn't reject her idea, that friendly nurse started her story.
"Have you heard about the massacre tragedy that happened to one of the royal families in this city?"
Mia only knew that the royal families were the one who secretly ran each of the regional lands. The government administration in each region was only the facade created by the royal families to conceal their identities after the tragedy took place. Previously, the royal families directly ran the respective region according to their own governance system. Since West City was divided into four sections - Central West Land (CW), North West Land (NW), South West Land (SW) and East West Land (EW), there were also four different royal families living in this West City.
About the massacre tragedy, there was no verified source that reported this incident. So, no one knew its exact story. Probably what she had heard so far could be far from the truth. The stories that were passed down to the young generations nowadays were the exaggerated versions and kept on varying.
"The massacre that happened to the royal family in South West Land fifty years ago?"
Many historians deduced that one of the dominant factors that made the SW Land became undeveloped region among others was due to the elimination of the royal family that governed that region. The massacre had caused a drastic change in that region administration system which took almost two decades to restore its stability in governing the land. That was why SW Land had the reconstructing process thirty years ago where the system slowly restored back normal. Some said, there were only three royal families left in this city after one being brutally killed by the protestors of the monarchy system.
SW Land was once the richest region among the other three but then it had fallen to the most devastating state when its King and Queen were killed in a mass massacre of that royal family leaving the land with no qualified ruler.
The attack took place at the royal family castle on the night of the young crown prince's birthday celebration. That joyous occasion had turned into a terrific bloodbath.
The news of the brutal killing of that royal family had shocked all of the other three royal families. The Royal Council decided to form a special task force - Shadow Team to capture those rebellious as to prevent another massacre to the remaining royal families.
Some said that the young crown prince had actually survived but sadly before the Shadow Team could find the whereabouts of the missing young crown prince, he was found by the rebellious and was killed in the end.

The royal families then decided to conceal their identities and let the democratic system to run the whole of West City. The first mayor was pointed by the residents collectively to administer the new system. However, the royal families were reluctant to let the democratic government to fully run this city and ended up monitoring the government from behind the curtain.
The party that won the first election was the United Democratic Party led by Sir Audrick Canmore. He wasn't originated from this city but because he had a successful business here and was on friendly term with anyone who made contact with him, he easily won the trust of the residents. Mayor Audrick Canmore was obsessed with the idea of bringing Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) into the city as quickly as possible so he was more focused on the stable regions where the foreign enterprises could easily set up their companies. In the end, SW Land was abandoned because of the other three royal families were busy monitoring their respective lands and on top of that, the royal families wanted to teach those protestors of the monarchy system a lifetime lesson. They wanted the residents to realise that without the royal families, the land would be neglected and had a recession.
The people in SW Land were saddened by this mistreatment and chose to isolate themselves from participating in line with the government policy to seek for complete removal of the monarchy power in the government. However, Mayor Canmore refused to do so as the existing government at that time was relying on the royal families to attract FDI into the city. As a result, the regional administration had difficult times in persuading the SW Land residents to reach a consensus. Only after twenty years later, the SW Land residents started to accept the royal families' influences over their land. That was when the reconstruction stage took place and now the land became the second richest land among the four regions.
