The wedding announcement spread like wildfire as the Morningstar family went all out to inform everyone that their daughter, Lucy Morningstar, would become the new Queen after this monumental event.
In the bustling marketplaces of Avarice, merchants gossiped while weighing fresh produce.
"Did you hear? The Morningstar heiress is marrying the new overlord!" a fishmonger exclaimed, filleting a large sea beast.
"The same person who made those prideful demon kings kiss his feet!" he added.
"Stop spouting nonsense! Do you want to get beheaded?" a concerned citizen warned.
The fishmonger scoffed. "Why should I be afraid of those cowards? They're only powerful because of their bloodlines, and now they can't even defend their legacy!"
No one bothered to challenge his words. This had become a common topic now.
Despite keeping their positions, the royal families reputations was dragged through the mud.
This discontent would only grow with time.
