"Citizens of Panem... One hundred years ago, the very first Hunger Games was held. After a period of war and rebellion amongst the Districts, The Hunger Games were created as both punishment and retribution for the actions against the Capitol. And in the Charter of the Games, it was decided that every twenty-five years, there would be a Quarter Quell. And tomorrow, we celebrate the Fourth Quarter Quell." President Snow paused, drawing an envelope from a simple, yet elegant box provided from a servant.
"To remind the Districts that the misdeeds of the rebels is the cause of their children's suffering, on this Quarter Quell, parents shall be reaped from the pool of those with two or more children, and must decide which of their children will be going into the Games." The crowd in the Capitol cheered, and soon after, the broadcast ended, the seal of Panem signaling it's end.
