as the cheers died down, all eyes shifted to King Ryu Pinon, the last to face the dragons’ judgment. The King stood alone, his posture rigid but his eyes filled with a mix of defiance and dread. The crowd’s murmurs grew uneasy, sensing the inevitability of what was about to come.
Finally, Abraxas’s eyes turned to the man, isolated by the weight of his own choices. The flames, once fierce, now coiled around him like a serpent ready to strike. King Ryu Pinon remained defiant in his stance, but his eyes betrayed a flicker of fear.
“Ryu Pinon, King of this realm, Guardian of the Crown, Keeper of the Kingdom’s Covenant,” Abraxas intoned, his voice as cold and sharp as a blade. “You have been granted power by the covenants of old, yet you have you have chosen to rule with authority, but not with wisdom. Your reign is without honor, and without regard for the sacred oaths that bind you.”
