Chapter 20: The Unveiling

The moon hung high in the sky, casting a silvery glow over the ravaged lands of Eldoria. The aftermath of the battle had left deep scars on the once-pristine grounds, where the echoes of conflict still lingered. Yet, beneath the surface of devastation, a quiet transformation was underway.

The castle, once a beacon of grandeur, now stood as a testament to resilience. The grand halls, illuminated by flickering candlelight, were alive with the hum of activity. Servants and craftsmen worked tirelessly, their movements a dance of restoration. Each stroke of a brush, each hammer’s beat, was a step towards reclaiming the castle’s former glory.

Katerina moved through the castle’s corridors, her steps soft against the marble floors. The walls, adorned with rich tapestries and ancient portraits, bore silent witness to the changes unfolding. The vibrant colors of the tapestries had begun to return, their intricate patterns telling stories of heroism and hope.
