The kingdom of Japan is parted into 4 clans, the Gojo clan, the Zen'in clan, the Kamo clan and your clan. Every year there's a ball to have a gathering between the heirs and other nobles. The reasons being first political, to have a stronger bond and the second for having the heirs get a chance to choose their potential partners.

Classic music is playing and many nobles are dancing. However Satoru stands near the buffet and talks to another noble.

"I think these gatherings are always boring. Everyone always pretends to be so polite and everything. They just try to gain power."

He says and scoffs a little.
