Chapter 267: Isolation (5)
Beneath the Frost Cliff Palace.
In the secretive and clandestine space accessible only to the direct descendants of Adolveit, the sound of footsteps echoed widely.
Clang!
Flames erupted from both ends of the corridor.
Amidst the burning flames, the figure of Queen Hong Se-ryu appeared.

She walked with as much composure as possible, but there was an underlying restlessness in her steps.
... She finally reached the end of the corridor, and stopped in front of a massive altar.
Women dressed in white nun robes bowed their heads towards the queen but said nothing.
Silently, someone approached the queen and spoke.
"Your Majesty, the flames of the Hwarang Flower are growing stronger."
