She envisioned the headlines for years to come. Her face was plastered over the front pages of newspapers as the suspect for assassinating President Pranit. In the future, school children and grown-ups alike would remember this as the pivotal point where the son of the president of Bankim ended all coups d’états. The citizens would reminisce about the violent past, where socialists, supported by foreign devils, hiding behind the guise of democracy, had attempted to seize power from their beloved president. They would remember the time President Pranit made deals that bankrupted their country, only to be saved by his successor. But whether it was out of fear, or out of loyalty, no one would know which side Fon really fought for. No one would really know who she was. The only evidence they would have is a photo of her lifeless body, sitting against the corner, with one hand in the cannon and the other in the terrarium, and fifty of the greenest geckos shoved down her throat.
