Capítulo 149: A symbol
The journey back to Amber Heavens was quiet. Lyrus and Lucidus traveled alone, their mission complete. Both the Iron Dominion and the Coalite Syndicate were now crippled, their leaders humbled and their powerbases dismantled. Yet, Lyrus knew this was not the end. Fear alone would not sustain peace—Amber Heavens would have to remain vigilant.
As they passed through a small village that had once been under Syndicate control, the people cheered, unaware of the details but sensing the tide had turned. Children waved, merchants offered humble gifts, and elders bowed in gratitude. Lyrus accepted their thanks with a calm nod, but his thoughts were elsewhere.
"Lucidus," he said quietly, "power can silence rebellion, but it cannot cultivate trust. How do we ensure lasting stability?"
Lucidus considered this. "Master, trust is built through consistent action. Amber Heavens must be a symbol not just of strength, but of fairness and protection. Let your actions echo through the lands—let them see you not as a conqueror, but as a guardian."
Lyrus nodded. "Then we will lead by example. Justice for the oppressed. Opportunity for the deserving. And mercy where it is warranted."
As they approached Amber Heavens, the newly finished gates stood tall, emblazoned with the symbol of the rising ember. Citizens welcomed their return with cheers, and the Guardians gathered to report on the continued prosperity of the kingdom.
Lyrus addressed them briefly. "The Iron Dominion and Coalite Syndicate will trouble us no longer. Let this serve as a reminder: Amber Heavens does not seek conflict, but we will never bow to greed or corruption."
The Guardians saluted, their butlers standing behind them like silent shadows, ever watchful.
