Soon after the battlefield was stabilized and the wounded were secured, a meeting was convened at the central hall of the Kingdom of Suryax.
The structure itself bore marks of the recent invasion, but it still stood firm, reinforced hastily by both Suryax mages and Regalon support units.
Inside, the leaders of Suryax gathered along with Rudra, Almond, Lily, Ainen, and the other key members of the Regalons.
The atmosphere was tense, but filled with relief and awe.
The King of Suryax, a tall man clad in radiant golden armor, stepped forward. His gaze lingered on the Regalons for a moment before he spoke.
"You have our gratitude. Without your arrival, this island would have fallen."
Rudra nodded calmly. "We are allies in this event. Survival comes first. Expansion comes next."
Almond stepped forward, his expression composed. "We do not have much time. The other kingdoms will also be stabilizing and making their moves. We need to act immediately."
