118 Coronation
On July 8, 4124 A.D., on the northern shore of Lake Imina, in front of the Palace of Evomo, the capital of the Elven Kingdom of Lejosharfa, a grand coronation ceremony was underway.
It was a very meaningful moment for the elves. However, according to the usual procedure, the coronation ceremony of the new queen should be carried out after the funeral ceremony of the previous queen, but Queen Arundel is a little different, she and Queen Allen did not have a funeral. For the elves and the forest, their bodies may have passed away, but their spirits and souls are immortal with the forest.
How long the awakened Treants will remain awake depends on the magical power of the Chosen One who blows the horn of the wind. It is said that even after thousands of years, there are still many Jungle Guardians roaming the Twilight Forest, and those Treants were once awakened by Queen Elen. And until now, her eternal soul still guides these Jungle Guardians, guiding them to attack any lowly aliens who dare to invade the forest.
Now, with the tens of thousands of treants summoned by Queen Arundel surging towards Svatalfar's territory and city, the reunification of the Twilight Forest is inevitable if nothing else. There is no need for the elven mages to do anything, the remaining elves and spirits of Queen Arundel will lead them to this great mission. Yes, her spirit will remain in the hearts of the elves, never forgotten.
Under the watchful eye of the public, the new queen of Lejosharfa, Cesa, is about to walk to the central round platform. But at this moment, her mood is still extremely sad and painful, and there is still a little hesitation and nervousness.
In fact, there are still many elves who are dissatisfied with Cesa's appointment, or have opinions. Despite Queen Arundel's strong recommendation, there are still elves who can't understand her killing of her husband, calling it "demonic thinking" and "the soul has been corrupted by the devil". The opinion of the ruling council was not unanimous until Linya thought for a moment and said, "If Cesa can kill her most beloved lover in order to heal the corrupted land, what reason do we have to doubt that she will not sacrifice her life to save this forest and the elven kingdom?"
Linya's questioning left all the councillors speechless. The god of nature and the goddess of the moon pulled her back from the gate of hell, she is also the only chosen son of the gods who now has the blood of the gods, she is the heir designated by the previous queen, she is the favored candidate of the gods, she is the only one who can blow the horn of the wind, and most importantly, she is indeed a guardian of destiny who can reassure the elves. Linya was right, Sesa had that incomparably strong courage and faith.
Sesa's steps were slow and steady, and under the gaze of countless elves, she finally stepped up the steps, climbed the round platform, and knelt down on one knee in front of Linya, who had been waiting for her for a long time with Tan Allen's crown in her hands and smiling. In fact, what to say about this coronation ceremony, according to convention, the person who put on the crown for Cesha should have been the green leaf archbishop from the Temple of the Song of Autumn Leaves, who represented the will of the supreme god, but now with the existence of Linya, a fake moon goddess, of course, as the bishops of mortal spirits, they dare not make a mistake. At the request of the ruling council, the Green Leaf Holy See, and the Magic Guild, in the end, Linya could only smile bitterly and reluctantly accept this speechless errand.
Alas, once the hat of this fake goddess is put on, it seems that there is no way to take it off. And I have to keep pretending to wear this hypocritical crown to perform, but I don't know how to explain it, which is really helpless and speechless.
"Grand Magician Sesa Rilka, now there is a problem. Following the steps arranged in advance, Linya tried to put on a sacrosanct "goddess" form, and said solemnly, "The people of Lejosharfa want to invite you to be the queen of the kingdom, they want to entrust you with the fate of the whole kingdom, the fate of the whole race, and the fate of the whole forest, are you willing to accept this great and sacred duty?"
"I do. After five seconds of silence, Cesha looked up and replied with a determined gaze at Linya.
"Very well, dear Sesa, I have one more question. Are you willing to sacrifice everything, including your most precious life, to protect Lejosharfa and the elves?" asked Linya again.
"I do. Cesha replied firmly, again, "It would be my greatest honor to die to protect the forest, and I would die without regret." ”
A beautiful smile appeared on Linya's face again, and she carefully picked up the emerald crown and gently placed it on Sesa's forehead.
The Crown of Tan Iron, the Elven Crown named after the great Queen Allen.
The applause resounded like a storm in the square.
"Your Majesty Queen Cesa, we believe in you!" exclaimed someone who soon set off a new wave.
"Cesa!"
"Cesa!"
"Her Majesty!"
Amid the cheers, Linya took Cesa's hands and helped her up, and the two gently hugged each other.
"Sister Sesa, I believe in you too!"
"Thank you, Your Highness Gaisha. ”
The celebration of the new queen's coronation is said to last at least three days, and this time due to the fact that the war was won, the celebration will be extended.
But the new queen and the ruling council could not sit idle, and they were said to be meeting to discuss how to deal with the war with Svatarfa. Of course, Linya had no opinion or interest in this, so she decided to hide in this large soft bed in her room and sleep very sweetly. Well, holding the little angel Chloe, full of happiness.
However, this beautiful lazy sleep was disturbed by the annoying Victoria, who brought Queen Cesha and Archmage Ivan to wait in the dining room, saying that there was something very important that she had to meet Her Highness the Moon Goddess.
Reluctantly getting up, and while we were having breakfast, Cesa told her something. "Your Excellency Ivan received the oracle last night, His Highness Gaisha. Mother Kelland wants to see you. ”
Kellan Imina Kerran, the legendary Tree of the World, is said to have been the world's first seed planted by Ilan, the god of light, on the southwestern shore of Lake Imina, and is the mother of all the Trees of Life, Forests, and Elves that followed. In the belief of the Friends of Greenleaf, the elves believe that each of them was originally a leaf on the body of the World Tree. When the leaves turn yellow and fall off, they will be reborn as an elf. And when the elves die, their souls return to the bosom of the World Tree and sprout again into a new leaf.
Therefore, while worshipping the wood god Hatting and the god of nature, Sucerus, the elves also worship this world tree as their mother goddess.
It's faith, and Linya doesn't want to judge anything. But...... Why did it suddenly summon itself? It wasn't an elf, and it didn't believe in the Green Leaf Cult. However, doubts are doubts, and if you are lucky enough to see this legendary giant tree, such an opportunity cannot be missed.
