In an instant, the entire hall stood up, even Farren and Alicia rose to their feet, offering the young girl a slight bow.
The young girl walked down the main aisle and stepped onto the main podium.
Gakels took a deep breath and then stepped aside, yielding the podium to the young girl.
The young girl faced everyone and offered a slight bow, then calmly began to speak.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am the spokesperson for the Council Chairman. The Chairman has ordered that I speak on his behalf."
Upon hearing the young girl's words, the assembly members' expressions turned very excited.
"The Council Chairman has finally spoken!"
"That's great!"
...
Farren and Alicia's expressions suddenly became very serious, their eyes fixed on the girl on the stage.
