Chapter 796- Raid On Castledor (4)

The kingdom of Ellesmere hadn't had a history of a queen ruling the land but Alfred felt like a change was needed for a time like this.

And so, he finally made his decision. Bending his knee a little, arching his back and while extending his right hand forward, he made a noble's bow.

"If Your Highness is determined to take the kingdom of Ellesmere back from the invaders and rule it as its queen, then allow me Count Alfred Eude Bergest, to help you in your endeavour".

Capital City Ellesmere...

The once prosperous city and an infrastructural marvel of the kingdom, had now succumbed to the ravages of war. Streets ran scorching black with reside of destruction and the buildings reduced to nothing but mere rubble.

Shattered glass littered the ground like morbid confetti, the air was heavy with the burnt scent of wood and the despair of a city that had witnessed its own demise.
