No Mercy
The crowd went wild as the revelation of the princess's wings came to fruition. All around, talk about how she wasn't fully human had completely dominated discussions. Any and all misgivings about her humanity had been snuffed out, instead replaced by questions of why she hid such a power in the first place.
"Wait, she's an angel all this time?!"
"Why bother hiding this much power?! She could've gone through all of the trials without even breaking a sweat!"
Nobody currently watching the events play out even knew of the princess's power. Except for the select few that knew of her heritage, all of them assumed that she was simply biding her time and intentionally weakening herself for some purpose or another.
Of course, Darius knew better than that. Though the fact that his wife was showing her wings was a different matter entirely.
