Chương 74: Rathian Kingdom 1

Third Person's POV

The Imperial Crown Prince, together with the others, was led to the heart of Rathian, a breathtaking kingdom of silver trees and shimmering waterfalls. They were brought before the elven council, a group of wise and ancient elves who governed the kingdom.

King Goren Artin Rathian and the head of the council, an elf, regarded them with a mixture of curiosity and caution. "Why have you come, ambassador?"

The Imperial Crown Prince bowed respectfully. "We come as friends and allies, seeking to understand your decision. Our alliance has always been one of mutual support. If there is a threat or a concern that has led to this isolation, we wish to help."

King Goren's expression softened slightly. "There are dark forces at play, forces that threaten the very fabric of our world. We have chosen to close our doors to protect our people and our way of life."
