25th October 1688
Simhasana Bhavana, Imperial Capital - Bengaluru, Akhand Bharatiya Empire
The excitement of the festival of lights slowly dwindled, and all the trash from the fireworks was cleaned up and people who had been on paid vacation returned to work one by one. The same goes for Vijay, who was currently in the office in a meeting with the directors of Bharatiya External Pragya and Internal Pragya.
Vijay was calmly listening to the report of Selvan, who was recounting the suspicious people and oddities that were observed over the festival week. Once in a while, the vague and distant sound of a firecracker going off could be heard, which caught Vijay's attention a little, but ultimately Vijay was not fazed and continued listening to the report.
