Jetlag
The Awakener Association building was always crowded on weekdays.
Hundreds of people lined up at various corners of the lobby, forming long queues undergoing various types of Awakener certification tests. Some of them appeared anxious, while others seemed calm yet full of anticipation.
Several long tables were set up in the middle of the lobby, filled with testing equipment and busy proctors recording test results. Bright lights hanging from the ceiling created a brightly lit atmosphere that filled the lobby. The walls were adorned with motivational posters and notice boards with information related to the tests.
Murmurs of various conversations could be heard, with some people encouraging their friends who were taking the tests, while others discussed specific strategies and techniques.
Klaus sat with a smile on his face on one of the dozens of chairs provided for test participants. The atmosphere awakened long-buried memories in his mind.
