    Their revolvers are drawn, but they won’t fire. They’re just here as backdrop. The fire department is here too, as are the ETMs, but there isn’t much they can do either. They know the rules.

Then there is one who rules over them. They all love the same thing; praise and adoration. The question is, to whom does the glory belong to, really?
