章 461: Heart Of The Kingdom

The air within Demonstone Castle was heavy with the weight of unspoken histories as Rowena, Asher, and Naida crossed the threshold into a room shrouded in shadows and silence.

In this hidden floor of the castle, there was not another soul in sight. No guards or servants would dare enter this floor even if they knew of its existence.

The door's loud creak broke the stillness, a sound that seemed to echo across centuries, revealing a space untouched by time or demon presence.

Asher, with a heavy heart, recalled the stories that whispered of the Devourer's decree: this sanctum was to remain sealed, its secrets undisturbed, save for a moment of dire need for the kingdom.

He knew this was why no king had disturbed this room ever since the Devourer was gone. They all respected his wish and stuck to it no matter what.

Rowena was also feeling regretful that she had to be the first to disturb this place and for a dire situation like this.
