Palace District.
This was Amberfall's most controlled and heavily secured district. High stone walls separated it from the surrounding wards, with guarded gates that regulated all entry and exit.
Streets inside were wide, clean, and properly spaced, allowing clear lines of sight and rapid troop movement if needed.
The royal palace stood at the center of this district, surrounded by administrative buildings, noble estates, and diplomatic residences.
Only high-ranking officials, trusted nobles, foreign dignitaries, and sanctioned Magi were permitted to reside there. Patrols were frequent and disciplined, consisting of elite guards supported by Magi.
Yet, despite all the security measures, the enemy had still managed to infiltrate this district…
In an opulent manor nestled at the edge of this district, a secret meeting was being held by three Magi.
"I did not expect you to personally visit, my lord." A blond, middle-aged man dressed in lavish silk robes respectfully murmured.
