Rudy and Maria were dancing in the big Underwater hall with hundreds of other guests. The lights were turned off, but the enormous luxurious chandelier was circling on one spot, glimmering lights in the hall, enough to keep things visible in everyone's sight.
The hall's walls were transparent glass, and even the ceiling and the floor were transparent. They were in a hall made of glass, which just increased the beauty of the Underwater world.
Everyone was exchanging their dance partners while dancing in a circle, but Rudy and Maria were in the center of the hall, right below the chandelier. And they had no intention of dancing with someone else.
Everyone present in the hall was wearing the mask and the dress provided to them, and all of them differed in colors. No one other than Rudy and Maria had a pure black dress and mask. Lu Bela had only given them to girls Rudy brought with him.
