Chapter 308 - During the journey to the capital (1)

A week had slipped by since Alfraed and his group departed from the familiar borders of Anspia, setting off on a journey toward the bustling capital. In this short span of time, the children and the teachers' assistants—who had always remained within the comforting embrace of their hometown—found themselves awash with wonder as they encountered the vast, diverse tapestry of the world that lay beyond. Each new day unfolded like a colorful banner, revealing breathtaking landscapes that had once existed only in their imagination. They marveled at rolling hills that danced in the morning light, dense forests filled with the melodies of unseen birds, and majestic mountains that reached toward the skies. And high above, they beheld the enchanting sight of a floating island, a curious spectacle that teased their imaginations and stirred their hearts with a sense of fantasy and possibility.
