The very moment Daniel appeared on the square of Winterhold Castle, a thunderous cheer erupted all around him.
Not only humans, but awakeners from countless other races had gathered in the square. At this moment, no matter their bloodline, no matter their race, the faces of all who saw Daniel were filled with feverish light, their voices bursting into wild cries of excitement.
"Lord Daniel, congratulations!"
"At last! We have waited so long, and finally the day has come for you to succeed the Human Emperor!"
"Great Lord Daniel, from today onward, you are no longer just Daniel—you are His Majesty Daniel!"
The flood of cheers rolled across the square like waves upon waves, and then, suddenly, balloons began drifting upward into the air. No one knew who had prepared them, but they filled the sky above the square, floating higher and higher. At the same time, bursts of fireworks erupted above Winterhold Castle, scattering brilliant flowers of light across the night sky.
