In the grand and opulent dining hall of the Castle of the Empire of Light, the Heroes of the Empire had gathered for a formal dinner. The room was illuminated by the soft glow of chandeliers hanging from the towering ceiling, their golden light reflecting off the polished marble floors. Massive stained-glass windows lined the walls, casting colorful patterns upon the pristine white tablecloths. The faint hum of conversation blended with the clinking of silverware as servants, dressed in immaculate uniforms, moved gracefully between the tables, ensuring that no glass remained empty and every plate was filled with the finest delicacies the empire had to offer.
The Heroes had arrived only a few hours prior, yet their presence was already required for an important discussion regarding the future. While the official matters were yet to be addressed, for now, the dinner served as a moment of respite—one where they could indulge in a luxurious feast prepared exclusively for them.
