A week later...
The grandeur of the Mayor's residence was on full display that evening. The affluent estate seemed to stretch on forever; its gardens, once crawling with guards, were now adorned with vivid flowers and sparkling fountains.
But that wasn't all. As nightfall turned the skies into a tapestry of stars, the mansion was bathed in the soft glow of countless lanterns, casting a warm and inviting light across the manicured lawns.
The guests, elegantly dressed in resplendent attire, gathered in the courtyard, each one vying for a chance to be a part of the celebration and gain recognition from none other than the Mayor himself.
Within the lavish interiors of the residence, the grand ballroom was a vision of timeless beauty. Crystal chandeliers dangled like radiant constellations from the towering ceiling.
