As Talon received the much-needed ticket, a wave of quiet anticipation swept through the room. The donation, an impressive sum from an anonymous benefactor, presented both a mystery and an opportunity. He couldn't fathom why the donor chose to remain hidden or their intentions behind this gesture. Yet, the prospect of earning 10% of 100,000 USD was too significant to ignore.
He returned to his designated spot, his composure unshaken, while the host continued to orchestrate the event with infectious enthusiasm. "So, Talon, will you accept the challenge? Opportunities like this don't come often, you know? The challenge is straightforward—perhaps even a bit too simple. But can you guess who our generous donor is? Can you deliver a song they'll appreciate?"
With these words, the host gracefully exited the stage, leaving Talon amidst a buzz of mixed reactions from the other performers.
