Valerian did not know why the group of people was looking at him with such a gaze, none of the people said anything to him either. They were still in a daze from the music they heard earlier. None of them were familiar with the music and they did not know the wonders it could create.
Fragrantia woke up first and said, "Nothing happened, my child. Come have some food."
Valerian nodded and walked closer to them, he placed his instrument at the side, sat down beside Fragrantia to eat the food, and shared some with the hungry cat as well. The sun went down and the convoy moved again. They were going to reach the imperial palace by the night. The empress told them about some pressing arrangements in the morning.
When the convoy reached the palace, Valerian almost failed to recognize the place, it was brightly lit with golden flame balls, moving around the building, casting an on and off shadow effect on the monument. The structure of the palace looked similar to a crown.
