As the morning meeting concluded, the weight of the discussions still lingered in Lucien's mind. The tour had provided him with invaluable insight into Veridia's struggles, and now it was time to act. However, for the rest of the day, his focus had to shift to the grand celebratory dinner marking the completion of the first leg of the tour.
Lucien returned to his chambers, greeted by the sight of his attendants already bustling about, preparing his attire for the evening. The dinner was not just a formality—it was a statement. Every detail, from the food to the attire, would be scrutinized by the royal court and beyond.
His personal valet, Cedric, approached with a knowing look. "Your Highness, I have prepared a selection of attire for the evening." He gestured toward the garments laid out.
