Bab 74: The Court's Fury

The grand throne room of the imperial palace was filled with an atmosphere so tense it seemed to weigh down on everyone present.

At the head of the room, Emperor Arcelius sat on his gilded throne, his expression stoic but betraying the internal storm raging within him.

Beside him stood Lord Leo and Lord Marius, whose stern faces mirrored the severity of the situation. The court had convened at the emperor's command, but the conversation had quickly spiraled into an impassioned debate over the fate of Prince Izan.

Voices filled the room, each louder and more insistent than the last.

"This behavior is unacceptable!" Lord Brutus's voice boomed, his frustration evident as he addressed the court.
