The ProsPhoneo was a marvelous place, located on a raised, circular platform at the very center of the Rotunda, commanding a three hundred and sixty degree view of the entire theater. Control panels allowed use of special lighting and projection systems that could turn the entire domed area into one gigantic motion picture screen. Drorli lit up the dome with images of the starry night sky as it appeared over Palace City throughout its four-season progression. He also explained that through the marvel of design, a speaker on the ProsPhoneo could easily be heard in the farthest reaches of the auditorium without the use of mechanical amplifying equipment, and do this without creating any echo.
At length, they left the Rotunda, exiting onto a different concourse that Drorli did not name, gradually making their way back to the gated door where Symeon and Hanna originally met up with him earlier that day. By that time, they were all in a cheery mood, Drorli entertaining them with humorous tales of his life growing up in the old days of Palace City long ago. After enjoying some refreshments that had been prepared for them, they were off to pay a visit upon the soon to arrive child.
