The Martial Unity

1740 His Move

Not long after his final meeting with Prince Raul, the news about the awakening of the Emperor of Harmony was announced across all of Kandria, evoking immense bittersweet celebration.

While not to the extent of Prince Raul, it was clear that Emperor Rael had earned a lot of love from the citizens of Kandria.

"His Majesty has returned!"

"All hail the Emperor of Harmony!"

"May Emperor Rael live forever!"
