đ.đ: A new world
A few hours later...
đhe late morning sun hung high in the sky, illuminating the grand entrance of the palace where the carriage waited, its polished ebony frame gleaming beneath the golden light.
Inside, Mira, Liliette, and Seraphine were already seated, the air around them crackling with anticipation.
Mira's usual composure had softened, replaced by a quiet thrill that shimmered in her eyes.
Seraphineânormally so sereneâwore a small but unmistakable smile, her gloved hands fidgeting with her fan.
And Liliette? She was practically bouncing in her seat, hands gripping the edge as her eyes darted repeatedly toward the palace gates.
Elysia had never seen them like this. Not Mira, the voice of reason. Not Seraphine, the ethereal one. And definitely not Liliette, whose boundless energy now had a place to run free.
It felt like a field trip. Something carefree and human.
And it warmed Elysia to know she had given them this moment.
