Chapter 1: Surrender to the Momentum We of the SubSaharan region take extreme umbrage with High Blade Goddard's removal of gleaning quotas. The quotas have stood since time immemorial as a way to regulate the taking of life--and, while not officially one of the scythe commandments, quotas have kept us on track. They have prevented us from being either too bloodthirsty, or too lax. While several other regions have now abolished quotas as well, SubSahara stands with Amazonia, Israebia, and numerous other regions in resisting this ill-advised change. Further, any and all MidMerican scythes are banned from gleaning on our soil--and we urge other regions to join us in resisting Goddard's so-called new order from establishing a chokehold on the world. --Official proclamation from His Excellency, High Blade Tenkamenin of SubSahara Excerpted from The Toll by Neal Shusterman All rights reserved by the original copyright owners.
