Cedric Von Drakkar was meant to appear before the court today. He was bowing to the pressure and rumours and finally accepting the emperor's condition.
Nobles all over the capital were in attendance, they wanted to see the prince of the rumours. The one whose presence made kings tremble.
The empress was among those who anticipated this meeting more than anyone; she wanted to see the man her daughter was going to wed. She heard he was quite charming despite always keeping his face hidden behind a mask.
Aurelius had told the emperor that Cedric was the one coming to ensure he agreed to grant them an audience.
The door was pushed open, and everyone first noticed the crown prince, who carried distinct features belonging to the Heliosian royal family, striking ginger hair and sapphire blue eyes.
