The morning air is crisp as the group, led by Emilia, enters Priestella, the grand Water Gate City. The canals, sparkling under the sun, wind through the city like veins in a living organism, reflecting the towering stone buildings and bridges that stretch across the waterways. The distant sound of merchants haggling and the low hum of the city’s bustling activity fill the air. Subaru, Beatrice, Otto, and Garfiel follow Emilia closely as they take in the beauty and complexity of the city, their minds set on the task ahead. Priestella is known for its distinct architecture, with majestic stone bridges that span the canals, creating a sense of elegance and serenity. But beneath the surface, there’s a palpable tension in the atmosphere—whispers of unrest ripple through the crowds as the city’s leadership, the Four Great City Hall Priests, continue to navigate the growing political instability. Subaru and Emilia are keenly aware of the delicate balance of power, especially with the royal selection looming. They are here at the request of Joshua Juukulius, Julius' older brother, who has called them to the city for a matter of urgent importance. As they make their way deeper into the city, they pass by vibrant markets and inns where the citizens seem anxious, but nothing overtly unusual catches their eye—yet. However, as they reach their destination, a sense of unease settles over them. There is a strange feeling in the air, almost like the calm before a storm. The group is aware that the request is not simply a plea for help with minor issues, but rather something far more dangerous. As they prepare to meet with Joshua and uncover the true nature of his request, they are unaware of the impending chaos that will soon engulf the city. The city, for all its beauty, is about to be shaken to its core.
