South of the city.
First-class Hall had been destroyed overnight a few months ago, burned to ashes by a great fire.
As time passed, various versions of the story began to circulate.
Some said that First-class Hall was haunted, that after committing many wrongs, it was set ablaze by a vengeful female ghost seeking retribution.
Others claimed that heaven and the people were angry with First-class Hall, and that heavenly retribution came in the form of a thunderbolt that wiped them out.
There were even rumors that a high-level person from First-class Hall, in the midst of lovemaking, accidentally knocked over a candle, setting the entire First-class Hall ablaze.
In short.
Ever since First-class Hall was destroyed, even the people living nearby would rather take a detour than pass by the place.
As soon as it got dark, the once lively area would shut down its lights in an instant.
Even if it meant cooking in the dark, people would rather not turn on the lights.
Tonight.
