As he got closer to the central castle, Darian noticed dozens of figures gathered around the area. Pretty much the entire royal family lived in that massive castle. Some were covered in scales, others had wings, and a few showed horns. Each of them had a trait inherited from their draconic bloodline. In other words, they were identical to the Mannaz from the other universe.
When Niara arrived at this place, she must've felt completely at home. Being accepted as the daughter of the Spiritual Sovereign must have been a huge achievement for her.
Darian felt relieved and happy for her. Niara had been horribly mistreated and used by the Mannaz in her universe. She spent a hundred years being tortured and then a long time running and trying to survive alone. But here, according to the rumors, she had been treated as an equal. And with her own merit, she reached the position she had now.
