The half-elves were happy, but their joy was about to reach a new height in the next few seconds.
"Everyone, this year, we are privileged to have King Thalirion gracing us with his presence. I am the one officiating the competition, but with him here, be assured that every judgment will be sound and just.
But he won't be the only one here today. This year, we are also privileged to have with us Queen Jascia, our Queen."
The moment the queen was revealed, everyone fell quiet, watching as the queen, the king, and Princess Elowen were unveiled. They were seated in a spot where everyone could see them.
As they did, their cheers rang out, filling the arena. Queen Jascia smiled, waving at everyone.
Just like how everyone was happy to see her again, she was also happy to see them - her people.
Events like these competitions were something she held close to her heart. As a warrior who frequented the Ancient Battlefield of Parting, she was always returning with something to give away.
