"So, this is the Kingdom of Edelweiss?" Will smiled as he looked at the Kingdom that was surrounded by floating islands, with waterfalls falling down from a height of hundreds of meters, creating several rainbows, showing a picturesque scene that was straight out of a Fairy Tale book.
"Yes," Ephemera said with pride. "Welcome to Edelweiss. One of the three Kingdoms that had remained standing in the Western Continent for two millennia."
Durren snorted. If the Edelweiss Kingdom had stood in the Western Continent for two millenia then the Dwarven Kingdom of Beldaral had stood for the past four!
However, the Dwarf didn't voice this thought because Ephemera had clearly stated that her kingdom was only one of the "three" kingdoms that had remained standing in the Western Continent for the past thousands of years.
Usually, Kingdoms and Empires rose and fell due to constant wars waged in order to expand their territories.
