Chapter 71: William Edenborn's Sadness

The Holy Empire, once revered and feared, began its descent into a morass of corruption and hubris with the untimely demise of Empress Henriette Gold Edenborn.

Her passing became the harbinger of a wretched era as the noble ideals crumbled and the insidious seeds of pride took root within the hearts of the people.

Like a festering wound, the empire festered, its glory fading into a dim memory. The loss of one of its important pillars marked not only the end of an era but also the beginning of a sorrowful tale of moral decay and arrogance.

The empire, once a beacon of virtue, now wallowed in the depths of its own moral abyss, its soul tainted and its destiny marred by the shadows of its past.

But in a twist of fate, Magnus Edenborn, the young prince who had long been dismissed and overlooked, was bestowed with the blessing of the Goddess.

He, the one labeled as the prince who killed his own mother to give birth to him, now emerged as the chosen Apostle of the Goddess.
