Kapitel 150: LIGHT

In the days that followed, Lyrus met with his council to discuss the next steps for Amber Heavens. The Guardians, led by Eydon, praised the decisive handling of the recent threats. "Your presence alone subdued them, my lord," Eydon said. "The world knows Amber Heavens is unmatched."

But Lyrus remained cautious. "Strength alone won't sustain us. We need to invest in diplomacy, culture, and innovation. Amber Heavens must be more than a fortress—it must be a guiding light."

Lucidus stepped forward. "Master Lyrus, your actions already inspire awe across the region. If we continue to lead with justice and vision, others will follow willingly."

Plans were set in motion. Trade agreements with Marivelle deepened, bringing prosperity to both lands. Ravenholm sent envoys to discuss shared defense strategies. Formerly oppressed territories reached out, seeking inclusion in Amber Heavens' growing network.

Meanwhile, the houses of Flames, Shadows, Shields, and Light expanded their influence. Each house trained future leaders and warriors, ensuring Amber Heavens would remain strong and united for generations to come.

In his quiet moments, Lyrus reflected on the path ahead. The system, ever present, hummed softly, a reminder of the hidden power guiding his every step. His ascension to a demigod had brought new responsibilities, but also new possibilities.

As the sun set over Amber Heavens, its walls glowing with the golden light of dusk, Lyrus stood on the highest tower of his mansion. Below, the people lived and thrived, protected and inspired by his vision.

"Amber Heavens," he murmured, "shall endure not because of my strength, but because of the strength I see in all of you."

Lucidus appeared at his side, silent and composed. Together, they watched the kingdom flourish, knowing that while challenges would come, Amber Heavens stood ready to meet them.
