Kapitel 90: Another attack

The aftermath of the battle left the castle in a state of both relief and vigilance. The immediate threat had been dealt with, but the lingering tension in the air reminded us all that the danger was far from over. Seraphina and I spent the next few days ensuring that the council members were safe and that the guards were on high alert.

One morning, as the sun rose, casting a golden hue over the castle grounds, Seraphina and I took a moment to enjoy a quiet breakfast together in the garden. The scent of blooming flowers and the chirping of birds provided a peaceful backdrop, a stark contrast to the chaos we had recently endured.

"Do you think we'll ever have a moment's peace?" I asked, taking a sip of tea and looking over at Seraphina.

She smiled softly, her eyes reflecting a mixture of hope and determination. "We will, Elara. But we have to fight for it. Our enemies won't just disappear on their own."
