Chris was very ambitious. Within the first month of his reign he had half of the wall between the upper and lower city demolished. He also had carpenters and builders in the lower city rebuilding their houses and businesses. He had passed a law to allow all Dark Bloods the same rights as the Beautiful bloods. It was a good step forward in fixing the rift between the races.
As for Alistor, he was the king's champion. I was now the swordsmaster. It wasn't exactly my ideal job. I preferred being in the field, but I knew being separated from each other was a choice neither of us wanted. I was still thinking over the king's blessing for our marriage for it still stood. Perhaps within a year or two, I would give it more thought, but for now I didn't want to lose my shield.
For the first time in many years, the Kingdom of Rylom would possibly find peace.
