The People's Palace was the peak of global power. Only the emperor was permitted to reside there. Built for the emperor, anyone else could only enter with his silent approval. That's why within the vast palace, almost comparable to a castle, there was just one bedroom for the emperor.
Yet, some direct royals and those with the highest authority had offices within the People's Palace. Among them was the second princess, Evelyn Agnes.
Quietly reflecting on recent events, Evelyn gazed out of her minimalist office window at the half-destroyed enemy palace. Her eyes revealed a complex mix of emotions.
Three days had passed since the enemy palace ended up in ruins and the third prince, Enoch, was killed. These days had seen a lot happen.
The death of a royal in the heart of the city, within a palace that was virtually their stronghold, was a shockingly large and unprecedented event. Even more, it wasn't the death of just any royal, but a prince with the potential to contend for the throne.
News of this occurrence spread far and wide, surpassing the royal city and engulfing all of Hubris at the break of dawn. The resonance was incomparable to when previous disasters were quelled.
