Capítulo 80: The ice Empress and the human Princess

-- POV Alayna --

We stood before the Empress of Elysium, dressed in clothes as black as her hair except for a magnificent white Imperial cloak. I didn't notice it right away, but beside her, sitting on a smaller throne, was another woman.

Unlike the empress, she had crimson hair and a much softer face. I didn't know who she was but her presence was also intimidating though more bearable than the ruler of the Empire.

"I am Empress Freya and you are in the presence of my army Commanders and my wife Queen Gaya here !"

As she spoke these words, Empress Freya looked in turn at the 10 women in front of us, ending with the mysterious woman at her side.

*Her...wife ?*

In all my life as a recluse, I didn't know that there were relationships like that. I was not against it at all, on the contrary I found it both wonderful and romantic. But my thoughts were soon forgotten as the sovereign straightened up with interest to ask us a question.
