Reyna Cabana blinked against the harsh studio lights, feeling sweat gather beneath her carefully applied makeup. Her crimson hair had been styled into an elegant updo that felt too tight against her scalp, and the designer dress they'd squeezed her into made breathing a genuine challenge. But she maintained her cool smile, the one that had been photographed and analyzed by fashion blogs across Valoria.
"And we're back with our special guests, the unstoppable Cabana sisters!" Park Hyun-Jae's voice carried through the studio. Her pearl-white blazer caught the light as she turned toward Reyna with a shark-like smile. "Reyna, a historic day for you! The big announcement, live on our show. You've officially accepted your recommendation slot at New Vein Academy. Tell us, which of the five prestigious student guilds will be graced by the next great Cabana?"
