Chapter 213
The Great Hall of Saxony Castle.
The Duke of Saxony, seated upon the throne in that very place, gazed upon his eldest son, Dale, and the lady who would become his wife.
Charlotte Lancaster.
Similarly, Charlotte’s mother, similarly ‘Vanessa Lancaster’, smiled as she watched her daughter. Leaving behind an indescribable complexity.
“Ah, what a truly splendid sight.”
The one standing at the apex of the Crimson Tower, the blood-red Duke Yuris, clapped loudly. It was an exaggerated gesture, like that of a third-rate actor.
“May the mercy and benevolence of the Sister Goddesses be with them both.”
Amidst the silence, the sound of applause echoed alone, and leaving that sound behind, Lord Heaven at the apex of the White Magic Tower blessed the two.
The pinnacle of the Black Magic Tower, ‘Lord Black’, remained utterly still upon his throne, maintaining only a silent vigil.
Simultaneously, blue butterflies rose from the four corners of the castle.
The blue spiderwebs still hanging everywhere clearly remembered this scene, reflecting it to their dark master.
Black and blue. Red and white.
It was a gathering of those standing at the pinnacle of four of the Five-Colored Magic Towers, and it was no wonder the weight of the occasion was palpable.
The elaborate formalities meant to bless the couple’s future held no meaning whatsoever.
Even with the Celestial Archon, said to be the pinnacle of the Sistina Goddess Cult, personally officiating their ceremony, nothing changed.
