Ren and Lilith followed the rest of the new Chosen as they were led through the church to where they'd been told was the Chosen Hall.
Their new white cloaks switched behind them as they walked, the Chosen speaking excitedly among themselves.
Before long, they entered the Chosen hall. The large hall was like a mix between a common room and a cafeteria. Lining the hall were long wooden tables, each set with trays of bread, fruit, and ceremonial wine.
They all took their seats on the benches affixed to the tables, murmur of anticipation filling the air.
Axel, Florian's enemy, who was the senior Chosen that had been assigned to escort them, walked at the front, a big smile on his face.
"This is your moment to celebrate." He announced. "In a few minutes, the older Chosen will join us to welcome you properly. You'll be assigned your personal quarters after this… celebration, and tomorrow, you'll receive your first postings."
