Plans Hidden In The Darkness
The Capital of the Asura Kingdom was the expansive Asura City, a bustling metropolis that was far bigger than even the Imperial City in size and grandeur.
Streets thrummed with life, lined with vibrant stalls showcasing an array of goods. Here, exotic spices mingled with fine silks, and the air was thick with the scent of roasted meats and sweet pastries.
However, the wealth of Asura City came at a price; only the rich could afford the steep costs of its wares. It was a well-known fact that the city's elite thrived in lavishness, their lives illuminated by the glow of gold and luxury.
At the heart of this vibrant city stood the Castle of Asura, a monumental structure that towered above the rest, a symbol of the kingdom's might and authority. Within its walls, a myriad of maids and butlers flitted about, tirelessly ensuring the castle remained pristine, attending to daily quotas with unwavering diligence.
