He leaned heavily on his ornate walking stick, but his posture remained as rigid and commanding as an old general's. He reached the microphone, adjusting his glasses before looking out at the sea of wealthy guests. "I want to thank you all for being here tonight," his deep, weathered voice echoed through the massive ballroom speakers. "To celebrate another year of life is a blessing, and having our closest allies and family in this room makes it all the more meaningful."
