As the overhead lights cascaded down, illuminating her flowing figure, the crown's brilliance shone against her dark hair, making her beauty even more breathtaki

“The Spiral’s first altar, the real one. The one hidden beneath the Hollow’s roots. If this thing wants to crown itself, that’s where it’ll go.” They broke into a clearing, the air shifted, colder, stiller.

I hate behaving.” He starts to lead her down the stairs again, and just like last time, George is waiting in his uniform, but with an added long black crushed velvet cloak with a white fur trim, and a golden crown. The crown is a broad band that circles his head with six short points, each with an oval cabochon of onyx surrounded by small square cut emeralds set in the broad part near the band.

Suddenly, with a soft pop, the crown split in two, sending a shower of sparkling red gemstones in all directions. The two halves of the crown hovered in mid-air for a moment, their magical energy pulsing and shimmering with an intense golden glow. It looked like the sun itself had split into two.

Daemon was waiting in the upper room. He was wearing what he’d worn the day of his coronation formal clothes, red and black, the Ashford colors that marked him as belonging to a specific bloodline, a specific history, a specific destiny.

He looked up when Cassian entered, and something in his expression softened. “I was wondering when you’d come,” Daemon said. “Elara sent me.” Cassian moved to him carefully, the way a man approaches something that might shatter if touched too hard. “She said I should watch tomorrow.”

The ancient jewels embedded within its black metal frame pulsed like living hearts, casting rippling scarlet light across the chamber.

Daryl leaves and reappears with a golden crown set with large amber gems just like my eyes whilst a pattern of points sit on the top, it looked dainty and sturdy at the same time, with an incredible design woven through. It was magnificent.

Then came the part that I had been dreading. I hadn't seen the crowd earlier on. It had been laying on a velvet purple pillow, covered by a glass shield. They brought the pillow to me and I looked at the crown. I had never seen an actual one up close. It looked like a tiara, with purple and white gems placed on it. It had arches and beautiful designs on its rose gold structure. My hands shook as I raised it and placed it on my head. Eventually, the mirror was brought and I swear, I gasped.

At its pinnacle, a moonlit blue sapphire shimmered, encircled by twelve dazzling diamond stars. Silver laurel leaves elegantly entwined the crown's base, reminiscent of waves cradling luminous stars.
