Chapter 122 - A castle

Meanwhile, in a quiet town, a massive castle loomed over the surrounding land. It sat atop a hill, dominating the landscape for miles in every direction. The structure was ancient, built from dark stone that had weathered centuries of wind and rain, its walls thick and imposing. Tall towers rose at each corner, their peaks crowned with battlements that had once served a defensive purpose but now stood as monuments to a bygone era. The castle was surrounded by sprawling grounds—manicured gardens, training fields, and defensive walls that created multiple layers of security.
