Mayor Shiv Irvine was escorted to the affair by Peacekeeper Nightlocke Helmsby. She addressed the crowd clearly and confidently, despite the lingering fear surrounding Maryn Hale's double duty as a Gamemaker and a newly-appointed liaison of District Nine. Already, her presence was felt in the district. Escort Gloria hobbled onto the stage, no doubt pushing 90 years old by this point, with an oversized floppy hat obscuring most of her face from the crowd. "It is time," she said as she stood over the impatient people of the District, "To once again send two of our own children to the Capitol to compete in the Hunger Games. Let us begin the Reaping!"
She did not look to see the reaction of her district before reaching into the glass ball that held the names of the children. "First up," the Escort announced, pulling out a slip of paper. she unfolded it and read out to the crowd, "Rhys Peace!" She then reached into the ball again, selecting another name. "Max Martello!"
