The speech which the president gave was much longer than what Druak had expected so Druak for the most part ignored what was said, most of which was just congratulations on entering the prestigious academy.
Once the speech was finished Druak started hearing names being called out. Which he paid no attention to till. "Druak." The president had just called Druaks name, causing Druak to look up at him.
Druak noticed there were 5 other individuals who were standing side by side next to the president, noticing this Druak slowly walked up the stairs towards the president. Once Druak was next to the president he went to shake his hand, as Druak noticed the other 5 had done the same, however as Druak pulled out his hand the president completely ignored him and called out the next person's name.
Druak had expected this but each time he was treated differently because of his status it still angered him, however it also gave him strength.
