Emerging from the mist was the Duke of Ethwer, his aura radiating with suffocating intensity. The air felt heavy and Julian's eyes narrowed as he assessed the sudden change of event.
The Duke of Ethwer stood tall and his presence was commanding the attention of everyone gathered.
"What are you doing, boy of the Easvil family?" he thundered. His voice was filled with anger and authority that echoed throughout the training ground.
The fog slowly faded, revealing the gathered crowd of nobles. All eyes were fixed on Julian, whose recklessness had triggered this unexpected confrontation.
