The Knights’ Tournament (Part 1)

A few weeks after Melina's birthday, the winter season slowly came to an end while spring arrived in the kingdom.

The people in the castle and the streets were going around hanging decorations for the city's festival, and the area for the knight's tournament had been cleared out.

Melina and I were overseeing the fighting arena out of pure curiosity, and to our surprise, the supreme commander of the knights was present there, too.

He was an older man who seemed to be in his 50s. He had long brown hair, a few white strands showcasing his age, and a severe facial expression.

Noticing the princess there, the man approached us and introduced himself.

His name was Thorne Starcrest, the Supreme Commander of the Knight's Orders.
