You often think about how it was 200 years ago, when your family was the most powerful of the region, respected and even feared. You often do it at night, when insomnia keeps you awake and the only thing left to do is to walk up and down the empty rooms of what once was the majestic palace of your family. You, and your father before you, had to sell most of your belongings to keep the palace from falling into a pile of rubble. Even the fields where the Research Centre for Advanced Studies was built, once belonged to your family: your grandfather gave it to the municipality - for free. Now they invited you to this presentation, maybe out of gratitude for your grandfather’s present, or most likely because you are still an important figure for the citizens. You plan to participate in the event, but mostly to avoid another boring lonely night thinking how everything was better in the past.
