The Host of the Evening– Osha Daman
The clock struck at 9 PM and the Grad Ball began.
The event was held inside a giant hall with a semi-transparent dome roof. A stage was erected in one corner of the hall, hosting a band of musicians in the back.
A melodious tune played as the backdrop for the event. It could be heard mysteriously in every corner of the hall without being too loud. It soothed the listeners' minds and gave them a positive feeling about the evening at the same time.
There was a large crowd of the audience seated in front of the stage. Graduate rankers had dedicated round tables for themselves. Their plus-ones sat with them.
The drinks and food were served to these rankers right on their tables. All they needed to do was use the space-element arrays etched onto the tables' faces to get what they wanted and it would appear on their table without a moment's delay.
The atmosphere was full of energy and tense at the same time. It felt tense to some rankers because a Sage hosted the event.
