On the next day, as Aldrian was in his throne hall receiving some guests from another world, he received information that Princess Vaeril had come to visit him with her entourage.
Without thinking further, he let them to come in while the guests excused themselves.
The moment Princess Vaeril arrived with her entourage, Aldrian could see that the Verdyn Empire was truly not joking with their lineup. He could recognize almost all the higher-ups from the imperial faction of the past among her group. There was even Grand Duke Vreiris and his son Orlan included in the entourage.
As they approached the stairs leading to the throne, all of them bowed before Aldrian.
"We greet Your Majesty, Emperor Aldrian the Great," Princess Vaeril said.
Aldrian smiled as he stood up from his throne and approached the princess.
"At ease, Princess. I see that you intend to join me in my journey to the Fallen Star Cluster."
