The hall fell silent as a commanding voice cut through the air.
"Attention!"
A man stood before us, tall and imposing, dressed in pristine white robes that made him seem almost larger than life. His mere presence commanded focus, and the sound of his voice reverberated off the walls, a wave of tension settling over the room as all eyes turned to him. He looked over the crowd with a gaze as piercing as it was unyielding.
"I am Luke Bane," he announced, his tone stern and uncompromising. "Senior Professor of the Combat Department, and I'll be presiding over the examinations."
He paused, letting his words settle into the minds of every candidate in the room.
"I will be briefing you on the test details, so listen carefully. I won't repeat it twice."
The room was completely silent now, each of us standing rapt and attentive.
