“Listen up!” I shouted.  I used my swarm to give me more volume, and to stand out against the noise of the crowd.  People went silent, and every set of eyes turned towards me.  I stepped up onto the truck, hiding myself briefly in the swarm as I hopped up.

Hey! Listen!

(I know that’s my second Navi joke tonight. Sue me. Besides, it’s only fitting for them to be annoyingly frequent, is it not?)

I addressed them, “Not everyone will get a box today.  That is not an excuse to take what others have already claimed.  As I said, I will not tolerate stealing or theft among you.  

This is a good announcement to make. I think you’ll be a pretty decent queen.

If you try it, I’ll treat you the same as I treated him.”

And we’ve got a touch of intimidation, pulling in the example-making to full effect. Excellent.
