The butler led Lex toward the palace doors opened by the guards stationed there. He watched the man thank the soldiers, who nodded.

When they entered the entrance hall, he saw many paintings depicting scenes of famous battles and moments in Valvania's history. 

Lex was led through well-decorated corridors that weren't overly flashy, and he soon realized that the imperial family preferred history over pointless decorations.

As they walked, they passed by a training field where a girl was fighting numerous soldiers who circled her. Lex noticed she had a spear, but it looked somewhat different.

The butler soon stopped walking and looked back to see Lex look at the scene with interest. The man approached him and spoke in a neutral voice. ''That is the second princess, Emilia Valvania. She is a strong fighter and always strives to be the best.''
