As they left the palace grounds, the air between them was filled with a mixture of excitement and anticipation. Solan was pleasantly surprised when Selene led the way.
"I thought you might have chosen the place," he said, a playful curiosity in his voice.
Selene grinned, "Oh, I have. Trust me, you're going to love it."
After walking through the bustling streets, they arrived at an intimate restaurant with an ambiance that felt both relaxed and elegant. A soft glow emanated from decorative lanterns, casting a warm light on rustic wooden tables adorned with fresh flowers. The restaurant seemed to encapsulate the blend of traditional and modern that characterized much of the palace settlement.
"Welcome to Luna's Bistro," Selene said, her eyes twinkling. "I thought a cozy place like this would be perfect for our first date."
Solan was genuinely impressed. "It's perfect, Selene. You have incredible taste."
