There was also a shield, with a magnificent and ferocious griffin embossed on the face of the shield. The only other things in the trunk were the full chainmail armour, an elaborate waist belt, a leather pouch, a set of tubular bells and cloak with the coat of arms of the Zumerongs which was a magnificent and ferocious griffin, standing tall and proud, embroidered with threads of gold, silver and copper; the image was so life like and imposing that just a glance at the magnificent image commanded respect.

Hannah fell in beside me, and Kieran trailed just behind, his shadow pressing like a weight I couldn’t shake. Hannah glanced at me. “Are you prepared for it?” A faint laugh slipped out of me, though it wasn’t really a laugh. “I don’t know. Not like I’ve got any choice, do I?” “I suppose not,” she replied. I looked down at the robe, tugging lightly at the sleeve. “What’s the purpose of this thing?” “That is the feeder’s ceremonial robe,” she explained. “It marks you as the vessel.” The word lodged in me like a stone. Vessel. I didn’t respond.

The last thing I need is people thinking I have lost my mind. Soon after, I get dressed. The maids dress me in the first robe, which will be worn on entry to the coronation and later at other ceremonies. I hadn't realized that Inauguration services require tons of robes and garments. There's an anointing gown – a simple and austere garment that will be worn during the anointing. The first robe with which symbolizes the derivation of Royal authority from the people. Currently, I am dressed in the main robe worn during the ceremony and used during the Crowning. Then, I have on a scraf and gloves which accompanies the main robe.

Small blue stones accent the krúna upon her head. Today she wears a deep blue gown made from fabric richly woven with silver embroidery along the neckline, bodice, sleeves, and hem in elaborate interlocking serpentine patterns. Beneath this is a pale linen underdress with wide sleeves decorated with fine hints of silver woven into the borders. A heavy dark blue cloak lined with thick fur falls from her shoulders; its edges embroidered in similar trim as her dress. Matching silver brooches with chains secure the cloak.

Ember They dress me like a weapon. Layer by layer, they sheath me in black silk and obsidian-threaded velvet, the fabric heavy with enchantment. The bodice tightens around my ribs, forcing my posture straight, regal, unyielding. Gold filigree coils over my shoulders and down my arms, etched with sigils older than the city itself. Power hums in them, responding to me, recognizing something it has been waiting for. Sariyah watches from behind, her reflection framed in the mirror over my shoulder. “You wear it well,” she says. “The city already feels your presence.”

Cali told her with a proud smile. Imeela took the chalice and swallowed the combined blood. A shockwave of power flooded through the bond. Her eyes blazed silver as her aura expanded immensely. Holy fucking hell. I had thought her aura was strong before, but it had nothing on this right here. This was the fully Royal aura. Wow… I would have to fully appreciate it in private because the thoughts it caused were not suited for an audience. Barnaby placed the official Royal robe over her shoulders and a crown on the top of her head. It was gorgeous with a gold, silver, and black theme. I did not want to know how much it was worth because the numerous diamonds alone added up.

he gives me a cold smile, "Do your worst, Orion. Do.your.worst." My face blazes with more heat, and I land another punch on his face again. "You!" I yell, giving him more punches. He does nothing but smile like a maniac. "You want to kill me, right? Kill me. Whether I'm alive or not, you still won't lay a finger on her." My guards arrive with the silver comb. A double crescent shaped metal with uneven poisoned spikes. In my rage, I fling the comb from them, and peel off the skin from Roger's back with one fluid motion.

He used to say my bob haircut hurt his eyes, that I walked around all day with a blank expression and a sickly yellow face, like something not quite human. The insecurity that haunted me for years had his name written all over it. Now, looking at him again, he had slicked-back hair, a bloated face, and a protruding beer belly that even his oversized suit couldn't hide. Years had passed, but he was just as unpleasant as ever. "Fine," I said. "Anyone who'd rather not hear old stories is welcome to leave. Just tell the front desk my name, and they'll set you up with a complimentary bottle of premium red wine on me. Consider it my apology."

This was battle armour disguised as a formal dress. The dress was black leather that hugged my frame like another skin, reinforced with silver panels that would redirect blades. The neckline was modest, but the back plunged low, revealing the scars I had spent years hiding. Silver thread embroidered Shadowborn symbols along the edge — ancient protection runes that I somehow recognised despite never having learned them. " Where did you get this?" I asked, touching the soft leather.

he snickered. I shot him a warning glance, though I couldn’t stop the small laugh that escaped. “Just find the robes, Lucas.” We moved deeper into the boutique, sifting through racks filled with ceremonial robes. The fabrics shimmered faintly from the pack magic imbued in their threads. Each garment felt like it carried its own legacy, as if it had been woven with purpose.
