After the palace tour, a royal carriage ride was arranged for Oriana to visit the entire city. This allowed the people of Aurialor to see their princess and for Oriana to witness that her family was still remembered fondly.
Numerous knights, mounted on horses, accompanied the royal open carriage. The knights wore the uniforms originally donned by the Aurialor royal knights in the past. Everything was restored to its former glory from her grandfather's reign.
Arlan helped her sit in the open carriage but did not climb in himself. "Are you not coming?" she asked.
He shook his head. "It's your day today. People are waiting for their princess, Oriana Laurien."
