After King Gulben killed the Alpha Direwolf, a hush fell over the battlefield. With a weary but determined steps he approached the fallen beast.
His sword still gleaming with the remnants of their epic clash, blood that oozed frozen mist.
As the lifeless body of the Alpha Direwolf lay on the ground a palpable sense of relief washed over the battlefield.
Without their leader, the once ferocious Direwolves seemed to lose their fervor and strength. Their ranks descending into disarray.
With the threat of their Alpha vanquished, the remaining Direwolves faltered in their attacks, their movements becoming sluggish and uncoordinated.
No longer driven by the command of their leader, they appeared confused and vulnerable.
Sensing their weakened state, the soldiers of Elf Palace seized the opportunity. They pressed forward with renewed vigor.
With coordinated strikes and unwavering resolve they easily overwhelmed the faltering Direwolves, swiftly slaughtering them one by one.
The air was filled with the sounds of battle as swords clashed and Magical attacks flew.It was clear that the tide had turned in favor of the Elves.
With each passing moment, the Direwolves grew weaker, their once fearsome presence now reduced to mere shadows of their former selves.
In the end, the last remnants of the Direwolf pack were swiftly killed. The Elves sighed in relieve.
Standing over the Alpha's lifeless form, King Gulben gazed out across the battlefield, his eyes reflecting the gravity of the moment.
In the soft light of moon he seemed to radiate with a quiet strength and resilience, a beacon of hope amidst the chaos of war.
With a solemn nod to his comrades, Gulben raised his sword high. Its blade catching the first rays of sunlight as if to herald a new beginning.
In that moment, the soldiers knew that victory was theirs, and that under the wise and noble leadership of their king.
Aurdis and Aerchon exchanged a glance. Their eyes reflecting a mix of awe and relief as they watched their father, King Gulben, standing tall amidst the aftermath of the battle.
Despite the ferocity of the fight he appeared unscathed. Radiating a formidable aura that spoke of his indomitable strength.
"(It's going to be a long story, father,)" said Aerchon.
King Gulben sighed, then said. "(Say the most important and urgent.)"
The three of them were confused because there were so many things that had to be said. But King Gulben really had to start hearing about everything other than the Great Calamity.
One of the most important things he must know is about Erend and his Dragon power. That was something they couldn't possibly miss because in the near future the King would definitely meet Erend.
When King Gulben heard about Erend having the power of a Dragon, his expression was a mixture of shock and admiration. His eyes shone with admiration as he thought about how incredible such power was.
The King pondered for a moment to think about the implications of the existence of an individual with such great power in the midst of his kingdom.
However, behind his admiration, there is also a feeling of deep concern about how Erend's power can affect the balance of power between their society.
Despite this, King Gulben does not doubt that Erend has an important role in the destiny of his kingdom.
He helped Aurdis and Aerchon solve a lot of their problems. With motivation that he doesn't really know why.
Seeing the concern and confusion on his father's face, Aurdis said. "(Don't worry, father. He is not evil. And we can trust him.)"
Gulben looked up at his daughter. "(You seem so sure about that. You never thought that one day he would betray like him.)"
Aurdis looked at his father firmly, expressing his belief in a steady voice, "(I have faith in him, Father. He has shown bravery and loyalty, qualities that cannot be easily shaken. I believe in his potential to be a valuable ally to our kingdom.)"
Gulben watched his daughter with deep respect, pondering her words seriously. "(Your trust in him is admirable, Aurdis. I hope your faith will not be misplaced. For now, we must proceed with caution and observe his actions closely.)"
Aurdis did not deny what her father said. If she said that she and Erend had a special relationship it would only make him even more suspicious. And maybe this conversation will get longer.
Aurdis suddenly felt like she missed Erend when they suddenly talked about him.
"(Now, about Laston's betrayal. Tell me about it,)" King Gulben said in a heavy tone. Even so, he had to still listen to it.
