Merasi

A woman entered an elevator and hit the button for the highest floor. Once again, she had news in her hand, one that could shake the entire continent.

She couldn't believe that she had to be the one to deliver that information to the lord.

The door of the elevator opened, and she walked out of it. She walked up to the door of the room where the lord of the tower remained and knocked on it.

"Your majesty, I have some news," the woman spoke from outside the door.

"Come in," a voice came from inside. The door opened on its own, and the woman walked in.

"What is going on, Lira?" he asked the tone of his voice a little anxious. 

"We… we just got a report, your highness. A kid from the Freelands has apparently learned how to create Aether," the woman said in a rushed voice.

"What?" the lord looked surprised. Lira was surprised to see that look as well. The lord never looked surprised.
