Yes, The Three Musketeers of the Literature Club still triumphed, they won their acquittal, although their victory looked uglier than defeat. The audience at Andrei Academy erupted in loud applause, and every lich looked anew at this enforcer from Andrei. Mr. Law had proven his talent to all, treading on the pain of The Three Musketeers of the Literature Club.
The outcome was unexpected, a refreshing surprise for all; everyone praised the "loser," and the three who knelt by Mr. Law's side, clinging tightly to the hem of his trousers, were like water ghosts drowning in a swamp, their desperate ugliness only making Mr. Law appear more imposing. The liches enjoyed screams and wails, especially those of the Literature Club. Their piercing screams were like the horn blasts of a celebration, reminding everyone that this was the final court of the Lich Disaster, and a pleasant part of the academic gala.
