Gravis went to the Mountain of Pride and stood before the Empress. "I'm ready to go," he said.
The Empress nodded. Then, she turned to the Grand Elder, who stood right beside her. "I'll leave everything up to you," she said.
The Grand Elder sighed. "I knew that this time would come, but I'm still not looking forward to it. This will be a pain."
"This was our deal," the Empress said coldly.
The Grand Elder sighed again. "I know, and I will keep my word. You've helped me for centuries. I guess now it's my time to help you."
Gravis thought that the Grand Elder was making a big deal out of nothing. He only had to watch over the Empire for a little more than 50 years.
"Let's go," the Empress said as she turned to Gravis.
Then, for the first time, the Empress rose from her throne. Gravis had never seen the Empress leave her throne before. It even felt weird for Gravis to see her floating.
Gravis also started floating, and then they flew towards the north. The Empress' tail was over ten meters long, and it gracefully moved around in the air behind her. Even while flying, she had an aura of royalty to her.
"Empress, why did the Grand Elder react like this? It's only a little more than 50 years," he said.
"I'm not your Empress anymore," she said.
