There was her flawless porcelain skin that radiated a natural glow. Her complexion was so pure that it appeared untouched by the passage of time, and a gentle dusting of freckles across her nose added a touch of charm. Her most captivating trait was her brilliant, bright green eyes, akin to sparkling emeralds. These eyes seemed to hold entire galaxies within them, with flecks of gold and hints of aquamarine that danced when she blinked, casting a spell on anyone fortunate enough to gaze into them. Framed by long, dark lashes, they contrasted beautifully with her arched, naturally dark eyebrows, which were impeccably groomed and added depth to her gaze.

Her lips were a soft, inviting shade of rose petal pink, their fullness enhancing their sensuous appeal. When she smiled, which was often, her lips curved with a graceful elegance that seemed to brighten the room. They were like the petals of a delicate flower, and their natural blush only added to her overall enchantment.

"So... pretty..."

The grand throne room, a majestic chamber of regal splendor, was a testament to the kingdom's deep connection to the aquatic world. From the moment one stepped across the threshold, the ambiance immersed visitors in an undersea realm of unparalleled elegance.
The walls of the throne room were adorned with intricate mosaics that depicted vibrant coral reefs teeming with life. Schools of colorful fish swam through the intricate coral formations, while elegant sea turtles glided gracefully amidst swaying kelp forests. The mosaics were crafted from a mesmerizing blend of azure, emerald, and sapphire tiles, mimicking the myriad hues of the ocean depths.
Above, a vast dome ceiling was painted with a breathtaking mural that mirrored the ever-changing surface of the sea. Sunlight streamed through the painted surface, casting a warm, dappled light that danced across the room. The mural depicted rolling waves, their foam seemingly frozen in time, and pods of dolphins leaping joyfully in the air. Glistening drops of water appeared to hang suspended from the mural, creating the illusion of being underwater. n/-0vεlb1n
The throne itself was a magnificent creation, carved from a single colossal piece of pearl-white coral. It was adorned with intricate seashell patterns and embellished with pearls and mother-of-pearl inlays. The back of the throne was shaped like a massive scallop shell, its iridescent surface shimmering as if wet. Upon the throne's seat rested plush cushions adorned with delicate seashell embroidery.
Flanking the throne were colossal columns made to resemble towering kelp forests, their tops adorned with intricate coral and aquatic plant motifs. Enormous clamshell sconces lined the room, their soft, golden light casting a warm, underwater glow.
The floor, a mosaic of marble and aquamarine tiles, featured intricate designs of flowing water currents and playful dolphins. As visitors moved through the room, it felt as if they were walking on the very surface of a tranquil ocean.
In the corners of the throne room, large, decorative aquariums housed vibrant marine life, providing a living tableau of the kingdom's affinity for the sea. Colorful fish darted among the coral, while delicate sea anemones swayed in the gentle currents. It was as if a piece of the ocean had been brought indoors, encapsulating the kingdom's deep-rooted connection to the aquatic world.
As one entered this grand aquatic throne room, the atmosphere resonated with the majesty and beauty of the ocean. Every detail, from the intricate mosaics to the grand coral throne, celebrated the kingdom's reverence for the sea, creating a space that was both awe-inspiring and regal.
"I'm glad you've recovered, but I think we have to postpone training for a while," The queen smiled, causing me to nearly jump with excitement. Yet, just as I tightened my toes and clenched my fists, ready to pump them into the air, the same announcer tore everything right down once more. "But, don't think you're getting away with doing nothing. I want you to do a practical mission since we haven't done one in a while."
"*sigh*... What's the assignment?" I groaned, only for her to slap me on the back of the head.
"Quit your bitching or I'm sending you to the front lines." I swiftly gulped down a large drop of saliva before shutting up and letting the stern queen explain the details. "So... it's a simple mission. Currently, some of the villages on the shores of our kingdom are being pillaged constantly and since they're not in the water, most of my army can't really help. I've been sending as many troops as I can, but? the assailants are just too strong."
"So are you saying it might be the work of another kingdom or nation? I wouldn't mind taking down another ruler for you..."
"I know you wouldn't, but that's not what I want. What I want is for you to help the villages. Protect as many as you can and pull them out of poverty. Currently, the most threatening part about this situation is the fact that all resources have been cut out from being delivered in and out of them... so just keep them thriving for a bit while I take care of the rest."
