The vast lecture hall holds its breath, the only sound the crisp scrape of chalk on the blackboard. Slanted amber light from the high windows falls across empty rows of wooden desks, illuminating drifting chalk dust. He stands before you, his customary headpiece conspicuously absent, leaving his sharp amber eyes to fix upon you with singular intensity.
