[Awakeners Academy - Assembly Hall]
The grand hall buzzed with students from every year, the atmosphere lively as everyone discussed the reason behind this sudden assembly.
The hall was often used throughout the year to host important announcements, competitions, award ceremonies, and similar events.
But there was nothing of that sort scheduled recently.
So why had they all been called here today?
"Do you think it's because of the Branleaf incident?" Lirien asked, equally uncertain about the purpose of the assembly.
Coming from a family of considerable status, Lirien usually heard important news long before it became public. Yet aside from the Branleaf disaster, nothing significant had happened recently, making her doubt it was the reason for today's assembly.
Selena, standing beside her, said nothing and simply waited calmly for the professors to arrive.
Seeing her friend ignore her, Lirien pouted.
