"We welcome the Void Supreme!"
Voices reverberated across the Great Universe Hall. Several bows also followed. Kailen and Arrie's loved ones were also here, in the fourth row of the VIP region. The supremes were in the first row of the VIP region.
They felt so proud of Kailen for coming so far—and for Arrie, for being the woman who had made him a better man. *Charles and the others should have been here to witness this,* they thought. Everyone decided they'd rub it in their faces when they came out of seclusion.
Kailen and Arrie floated calmly into their seats. The other supremes nodded towards them with glints of deep admiration and respect. Kailen and Arrie nodded respectfully towards them. Several in the hall discussed Kailen's feats animatedly.
