145 Getting Ready

Finally, it was the day of the wedding between King Drayce Ivanov of Megaris and Princess Seren Ilven of Abetha. 

The royal palace was decorated with numerous well-preserved flowers imported from outside the capital, as well as scarlet banners and expensive decorations made of gold, turning the entire grounds and various parts of the palace into a sea of dazzling red and gold. Delegates from various friendly forces and noble families had entered the palace to give their congratulations, even though they were already informed they would not be allowed to witness the wedding ceremony itself. Gifts for the bride and groom seemed to be overflowing, enough to fill several chambers, and the excitement and laughter in the air made everyone put smiles on their faces.
