The journey through Luthadel had been a crucible of ambition and intrigue. Now, as I prepared for the next phase of our tour, I felt both a heavy burden and a spark of determination. The itinerary had been clear—a series of events designed to immerse us in the political heart of Avaloria, to reveal the nuances of power and the delicate art of negotiation. I had witnessed firsthand how words could be as cutting as any sword, and how alliances were forged in whispered conversations in dimly lit corridors.
Before our convoy departed Luthadel the next day, Lady Genevieve gathered us for a final briefing. Her voice was calm and measured as she recited the details of our next engagements. "Your Highnesses, you will now prepare to transition from Luthadel to the next destination, where further opportunities to strengthen our bonds and address our mutual challenges await. Please review the schedule carefully."
