We all gathered together in a large ceremony in the centre of the elven city.

"These are the heroes who saved our races from the violent, bloodthirsty vampires!"

Speaking into a microphone, the king looked out into the neverending crowd of humans and elves alike. It seemed that, for this day at least, everyone was happy. I was getting somewhat bored since he was spending a lot of time discussing various topics related to our battles. 

I was tired and just wanted to go home and rest.

"This is annoying; how long do you reckon it's going to go for?" asked Robbie.

"I'm not sure. Honestly, I'm waiting to go as well."

"We could just leave?"

"It'd be a bit rude, and I'm not sure I want to deal with the backlash."

"I guess so."
