Murder! I Saw Murder!

The classes ended, and the thousand-strong student body poured out into the dining hall for an after-class dinner.

Four long tables were set up with a variety of delicious dishes, and each table was quickly surrounded by hungry students eager to eat.

Each table fit over a few hundred students easily.

At the end of the dining hall, there was a table for the teachers that was facing the rest of the hall, where the eagle-eyed teachers could keep a close watch on the students.

Three chandeliers hung from the ceiling, each being as big as a small car. The chandeliers were adorned with white crystals that cast the light across the hall.

It had been a long day of classes, and some students looked like they were roughed up quite a bit.

Their hair was disheveled, and their clothes were wrinkled and dirtied. It looked like they had spent a whole day in some swamp or forest.
