"Wonderful!" Orin waved for them to follow as he stepped up to purchase their tickets from a young woman with olive skin and raven black hair, bypassing all the lines. One of the perks of being Councilor, no doubt. From there they were escorted by what looked like the ticket seller's twin to one of the theaters.

"Always a pleasure to have you here, Councilor." She smiled as she talked and spoke with politely and with deference, to the extent that she came across as fake. "Will we see you tomorrow?"

"One hopes." Orin picked out seats for all of them and sat down. He reached over to a small table directly beside his seat and placed what looked like a headset phone on his head- except instead of a microphone there were what looked like two flashing lights designed to project directly into his eyes. He took the cord and placed the end of it, which had a metal plate, onto the base of the back of his neck.

Orin looked back to the escort. "This is the first time for my friends, if you would please help them with the adjustments."

The woman nodded. "Of course."
