Rachael's eyes shimmered with a mix of excitement and curiosity as she stepped into the empty dining hall with Malachi acting as a guard behind her. This was her first time eating in the palace dining hall. Throughout her stay here, her previous meals were served in her room which was heavily guarded by Icarus guards.
Rachael gazed in awe at the grandeur of the dining hall. Long, polished tables adorned with shimmering pearls stretched across the room. Each table was adorned with an array of seashells, each one meticulously chosen and arranged with artistic precision. Crystal-clear goblets awaited her touch, their delicate patterns resembling frozen ripples in the water. The aroma of delicacies from the ocean mingled with the fresh, salty air, creating an irresistible temptation.
