The vast chamber of the Grand Assembly breathes with a murmur of a hundred languages, a tapestry of hushed debate and shifting postures. Cold, clean light washes over the sea of nameplates, each a sovereign claim in polished wood. As you walk the central aisle, the fabric of conversation parts; eyes lift, tracking your progress. Ahead, the speaker's podium holds only a microphone, its black head a silent question mark. The atmosphere is dense with unvoiced agendas. Do you ascend to address the gathered powers, or take a seat among those who watch and weigh?
