A teacher in a suit, black hair and glasses took a few steps forward, straightening his glasses and clearing his throat before speaking into the microphone.
"Good morning, everyone. Welcome to another school year at the Seyek Institution." His voice reverberated through the gymnasium, echoing off the high walls. "To those of you who are returning, how nice to have you back. To the new students, I hope you're ready for a year of brilliant discovery and learning."
Some students closest to the stage looked attentive, while others looked away, laughing discreetly.
