Read the scenario. Reply to the prompt in a short paragraph. Write until I tell you to stop writing. Your kingdom celebrates by holding chariot races. The people are divided in support of two major teams: the blues and the greens. Three days before the chariot races members of both teams are arrested for disturbing the peace and sentenced to death. Their executions are botched; and they are sent back to the prison. At the races, the supporters of the blues and greens unite against you demanding the release of the prisoners. You refuse and the people begin to set fire to the city, inciting riots. Your safety is at risk. Do you flee or do you stay and regain control of the city? Why or why not?
