The evening of the festival was filled with light, laughter, and an overwhelming sense of joy. The grand dining hall of the palace had been transformed into a glittering wonderland, with long banquet tables laden with the finest foods and drinks the kingdom had to offer. Every inch of the hall sparkled, from the crystal chandeliers to the golden goblets, reflecting the warmth of the evening festivities. The royal family sat at the head of the room, with Lumi and her friends as honored guests, a rare privilege during such an event.
Lumi sat between her parents, Boreas and Kirsi, feeling both pride and warmth as the evening unfolded. Cyana was seated beside her, and their hands brushed under the table more than once, a silent but comforting presence amidst the bustling celebration.
