White Cliff City·Palace
In a city built on a mountain, the palace is on the top floor, where the air is slightly cooler and you can overlook the entire city from the circular window bars.
The white muslin curtains float gently, leaving changing light and shadow on the smooth floor. This is the tall tower in the palace, quiet and empty.
With a "squeak" sound, someone pushed open the door in this high tower, and then Princess Musa, wearing a black dress, led Sylutia in. Maybe we shouldn't call her now. Princess Musa is Queen Musa. The black skirt she is wearing today has a wide bustle, and the skirt is layered with pleated floral decorations, and there are also gold threads hanging from it, which is particularly beautiful.
"Tia, this is where I lived before." She walked in front and introduced Sylutia.
"Many countries have this tradition of letting unmarried princesses live in towers to minimize their contact with the outside world."
"It is easy to set up an isolated magic circle in a high tower. Compared with a palace with a lot of people, it can also be protected from other people's interference and prying eyes."
"It seems good to live here?" Sylutia was wearing a star blue and pure white wide-sleeved robe, similar in style to a wise scholar. The collar was layered, and the white lining and a bit of the neck could be seen.
"Some princesses may not like it, such as my sister Matisha. She prefers a more lively life where everyone often lives together."
"I don't have many requirements for this, whether it's a high tower or the inside of a palace." Musa said, opening the curtains so that the two of them could stand in front of the window and overlook.
"Tia said that he wanted to find a quieter place to live, so I thought of this." She turned her head and looked at the girl behind her.
The two are about the same height, and Sylutia's appearance is slightly greener. If a stranger met her for the first time, he would probably think that she is about 17 years old, while Musa's body and temperament are much more mature, probably in her early 20s. The black dress highlights the figure curve of this young queen, showing a light and attractive mature charm.
Nowadays, the young Queen Musa, who is not yet married, is the object of admiration in the dreams of many young people Regas.
"The scenery here is very good." Sylutia walked to the window and looked up at the clear blue sky. The refreshing breeze slowly blew in along the window.
"Tia Just like it~" Musa covered her mouth and chuckled.
"After that, I'll have someone prepare a bed and the furniture you need. Don't worry, it will be ready in a day or two."
"From now on, this house will be reserved just for you. You can come back and live in it anytime."
"Is there some trouble?" Sylutia turned his head. Under the bright sky, the curves of his face were soft, and he could even see the little tender hair on the side of his face.
"It's no trouble, Tia just live in peace." Musa gently shook the head with the exquisite crown, and the golden hair swayed like tassels.
"Now Regas I am the only one in the royal family. Many places in the palace are vacant, even too deserted."
"How about I accompany you on a special trip to the palace today to get familiar with the environment." Musa actively invited.
"Then I'll trouble you." Sylutia nodded in agreement. She was indeed somewhat interested in White Cliff City's palace and wanted to know how the princes and nobles of this era lived.
"Then come with me, Tia." Princess Musa took the initiative to hold Sylutia's hand, and the two slowly left the room and walked down the tower.
Walking through the long white palace corridor, Sylutia listened to Musa introduce to her the various buildings and uses here.
"This is Guard Hall, which is usually where the palace guards and commanders live. The high-level Knight can also live in the auxiliary room next to it." Musa introduced shortly after walking down the tower.
"My father used to trust Uncle Moran a lot, and he served as the commander of the imperial guards. He was my father's younger brother and the swordsmanship teacher of my elder brothers. He was very good to us." Musa recalled the past.
"Uncle Moran did not leave White Cliff City in the end, but stayed with his father until the end."
After that, Musa took Sylutia and continued forward.
"This is the "Snowball Flower" garden. Aunt Brin used to take care of it here. She is an old man in the palace. It is said that she even saw my grandfather's coronation ceremony when she was young."
"Snowball Flower is very cold-resistant and suitable for the climate of White Cliff City. She will pick a bunch every day and put it in her mother's room as a decoration."
After walking through this small corner garden, the two came to the other side of the corner of the palace.
"This is Tailoring Hall. In the past, there were about six or seven tailors living here, who specialized in cutting clothes for the royal family and palace personnel. When I was a child, my sister Matisha especially liked to come here to discuss new styles of clothes with the tailors."
Nowadays, the place is empty, leaving only rows of empty clothes hangers, and the tailors in the past have gone.
"Opposite is Shoemaking Room. In the past, two shoemakers lived there. One was responsible for court dance shoes, and the other was responsible for boots for hunting and going out."
"I came here often when I was a kid, because every once in a while, the size of my shoes didn't fit." Musa recalled.
Sylutia followed Musa and continued forward, arriving at a large stone room with multiple ovens and large tables. There are also several chefs busy here.
"This is Oven Room. The bread and staple food eaten in the palace every day are baked here." She introduced Sylutia.
"Then in front is the real Kitchen Hall, where meals and side dishes are prepared. There are many people working there, so we can just take a look outside."
After that, Musa also took Sylutia to the Candle Hall, which was used by the royal family to entertain distinguished guests, Golden Round Hall for hosting banquets, Concert Hall for enjoying music, a large garden for picnics and walks, and White Stone Pool with eaves and a transparent crystal roof.
The architecture in the palace involves all aspects of life, allowing the royal family and nobles to enjoy a comfortable life without going out. These places are also the result of continuous improvement and renovation by generations of royal families.
"It is said that when the earliest ancestors," Knight King"Regard, built White Cliff City, the palace here only had a large stone hall and a masonry house for sleeping."
"At that time, the entire Regas was still in a relatively wild state. Later, the situation stabilized and gradually improved." Princess Musa stood in front of the mural and introduced his family's origins to Sylutia, as well as the history of Regas.
The two walked side by side and came to a viewing platform high up in the palace. Musa asked the waiter to bring two chairs. She and Sylutia sat there and recounted the past.
From her childhood scenes, she narrated until she grew up, and finally White Cliff City fell and she and her brother escaped from here.
Finally, the sky gradually darkened, the setting sun in the distance gradually sank, and the dark golden afterglow illuminated the city and the white palace.
"Before you know it, it's this time." Musa stood up, her strapless black dress bathed in the afterglow, and her body was also gilded with a touch of gold.
"Although I have said it many times." She slowly turned around and looked at the girl sitting on the chair with her pale golden eyes.
"But let's say it again." She leaned down and pressed one hand lightly on the armrest, her white collarbone and soft breasts close to the girl.
"Thank you Tia for saving me and Regas from the turmoil."
Musa gently kissed the side of Sylutia's ear. The close body temperature and the hot breath made the girl feel slightly shy and her ears turned red.
