Principal William stood at the front of the massive hall, his figure commanding attention from the hundreds of students seated before him. His face, usually calm and stern, held a solemn expression, matching the weight of his words as they echoed through the silent space. The atmosphere was heavy, laden with the grief and anger of recent events.

"The Reapers dealt us a huge blow. But… we retaliated."
