The carriage carrying Audrey and her assistant departed from The Golden Crown Inn, gliding smoothly through the streets of the city.
As it made its way towards the palace, the carriage crossed the Thyrate River. Its sparkling waters reflect the sun's golden rays.
The number of buildings gradually decreased along the way. The scenery transformed from a bustling atmosphere to the tranquil beauty of nature.
Approaching the grand entrance of the palace, the carriage came to a halt. The gates loomed ahead, guarded by stern-faced men dressed in resplendent uniforms.
One of the guards signalled for the carriage to stop and approached the door with an authoritative demeanour. He rapped on the door, the sound echoing through the carriage.
Audrey's assistant opens the window.
The guard, with a sharp gaze, commanded with an authoritative tone, "State your identity, purposes and present your credentials."
