Chapter 279: A Passionate Dance

As night fell, the festival site buzzed with the crowd gathered for the main event - the prayer. 

The King of Cassian, accompanied by his queen and children, along with Anna and Kyren, arrived and gracefully made their way towards the elaborately decorated stage situated in the centre of the plaza. 

Stepping down from their carriage, they were greeted by the sight of royal knights and guards standing tall on both sides of the path, adorned with a luxurious red carpet in the middle, reserved exclusively for the king and the royal family.

With each step they took, the people on both sides bowed and curtsied, demonstrating their deep respect for the monarch. 

King Kyden, holding his queen's hand, walked with grace and poise towards the stage. As they advanced, he raised his hands, acknowledging the reverence bestowed upon him by his people. The Princesses of Cassian, Laura and Lilith followed closely behind them, with Kyren and Anna trailing right behind.
