When Master Doric had placed it on her head for fitting, her vision had flooded with impressions of every royal who'd worn it before her. "Your Highness," Captain Rowan appeared at her shoulder with his characteristic silent approach, his presence somehow both reassuring and unreadable. "The crowd's response has been... enthusiastic.

This unprecedented governance structure that might save the kingdom or doom it. Only time would tell which. But we would face that time together. As we faced everything. The Broken Crown. Five people. One purpose. Infinite complications. And somehow—despite everything—hope that we could actually build something beautiful from the ruins. The night deepened around us.

Throwing it like that, letting it fall like that…would definitely crack it! Almost instinctively, Gale lunged forward when the crown was falling quickly. She leaned forward and grabbed the crown tightly with her hands. Thankfully, she was very lucky. When the crown was only half a meter away from falling on the ground, Gale managed to grab it!

“Don’t worry… I am not forcing you to stay by my side. That is why, Emery, I will give you this one last chance to decide.

Mahagino is altogether more afraid to be executed than for his house to be burned by piratical incursions of the Viraiz clan.

Darina commanded the cavalryman to record the amount. “Your fishes will be of Clapestris, is that enough?” Darina asked Mahagino giving out the bag to the scholar.

It was quiet, so quiet if i was to gulp loudly, the whole room would hear it. The elder reached for the spectres on a red cushion placed on a wooden table and handed each of us to hold. "As Alpha Adrian's mate, his Luna, in blood, flesh and air, you will rise as the Queen of Cosmos Kingdom when I place this crown on your head." The elders thick voice announced. With my head bent low, I waited as the elder placed Adrian's crown on his head before reaching for my crown and gently placing it on mine.
