Chapter 107: A Cursed Coronation

The day of the coronation has arrived. The people of Ruthenia flocked around Moskva to witness the most magnificent ritual in Ruthenian history. 

There was a slight change, the wedding and the coronation will be held on the same date and same place, and instead of holding it in the Grand Church of the Winter Palace, it'll be held in the ancient capital, Moskva.

To prevent the Khodynka Tragedy that occurred after his father's coronation, Alexander didn't hold a celebration but instead made this day a special holiday where workers all across the Empire will receive double pay.

In Moskva, five golden domes atop the white stone assumption cathedral glistened in the sunlight. Inside, Alexander is draped on his regal fur cape as a servant placed a chain of jeweled medallions over his head. 

"Thank you," Alexander said to the man who placed the exquisite necklace on his neck. The man nodded and left.
