Chapter 147 - 147- Uninvited Guest

In the castle's grand ceiling hall, shimmering in blue and warm lights, stood a throne at its end. Its back was shaped like blue crystalline Phoenix wings. Its feet were carved into talons, and its beak rose tall, gazing over the entire hall like a queen surveying her court.On the seat formed from the Phoenix's belly, cushioned with fine material, sat a pure beauty with pale blue eyes and shimmering silver hair.Sara's eyes scanned the room where several elders were seated in two neat lines before her. Most of them were women, ranging from young to elderly—gray to black-haired—and only two men sat among them, their hair completely white, positioned on chairs just below the throne's steps.
