Idan and Arabel exchanged glances.
"A being of the ninth rank!"
Following Eulalia, they rose from their seats.
There was silence, in which excitement and tension could be felt.
Following the elves' gazes, Idan and Arabel saw her.
An elf woman entered the hall, her blonde hair gleaming with a barely noticeable greenish sheen. Instead of a massive crown, her head was decorated with an elegant crown woven from branches resembling living ones. Her deep green eyes, in which golden patterns appeared when the light moved, looked straight and confident. She was wearing a green dress decorated with living leaves and delicate magical lines.
She was followed by two young elves: a man and a woman.
"This is the prince and the princess," Eulalia said, and immediately explained, "The princess is of the seventh rank, and the prince is of the fifth rank."
