Five days had passed since the incident with Ares, and the kingdom of Malenia remained veiled in an eternal night. The stars twinkled like diamonds in the dark sky, casting a mystical glow over the winter wonderland.
In the Royal Castle, the air was alive with excitement. The stone walls, though cracked and worn, still exuded a sense of grandeur.
A sea of nobles and commoners filled the castle courtyard, their cheers and applause echoing off the stone walls.
At the center of the celebration stood Galen, his eyes shining with pride as Leocade bestowed the royal crown upon his head.
The gold and jewels glinted in the flickering torchlight, symbolizing the dawn of a new era for Malenia.
Behind Galen, the Matizizs stood tall, their bold figures a proof of their loyalty and strength. Or not.
Later, Anthonia's coronation ceremony was followed by a grand celebration within the castle walls.
