Morana’s lips thinned, her pride wounded by the girl she had once dismissed.

It took them five years to find the moon crystal, and due to their madness to find it, their powerful clan slowly lost its prestige and wealth as they scurried to hide in the northern lands. In Crown Prince Rogeus’ memories, the Artemia Kingdom recorded that that prestigious clan from the past is now merely a small tribal clan hiding in the deep ice valleys of the northern land as they have really offended a lot of clans and forces at that time.
