Chapter 228: Return to Hampi

It was an early morning with a cool breeze in Hampi, the grand capital of the Vijayanagara Empire. The sparse light rays of the rising sun were yet to wake up the city. A carriage was heading to the large gate of the palace. 

The carriage was heavily guarded by a contingent of elite soldiers yet it didn't draw much attention in the slumbering city. 

Upon seeing the crest on the carriage, the royal guards quickly moved to open the gates for the carriage. 

It was the carriage of the former Emperor, Krishna Deva Raya, and his wife Luisa. 

"What was he even thinking? Before starting this mess?" Krishna muttered. 

Luisa also had a concerned look. "Amor, please calm down." 

"Luisa, I can't calm down. The civil war just ended, yet he went and invaded another kingdom."
