Bab 336: Plunder

King Conradin rode triumphantly through the newly conquered city, his presence a symbol of authority and victory. The streets, once filled with the hustle and bustle of daily life, now echoed with the steady hooves of the royal steed and the cheers of Sicilian soldiers. 

The king's armor gleamed in the sunlight, reflecting the glory of recent triumphs. His crimson cape billowed behind him, a regal emblem proclaiming his authority. Conradin's expression was a mixture of solemnity and pride as he surveyed the city he now claimed as his own.

Sicilian banners, bearing the royal insignia, were raised high, marking the city's transition under new rule. The air was charged with an energy that spoke of both conquest and transformation. The king's retinue, comprised of loyal and trusted advisors, followed in disciplined formation, their armor and weaponry attesting to their roles in the recent siege.
