Arpious of the Planes

Chapter 566 The Queen

The guards are adorned in elaborate uniforms befitting their station. Their attire is typically crafted from fine fabrics, such as silks and velvets, and intricately embroidered with symbols and motifs representing the ruler and the realm. Elaborate cloaks, often in rich forest greens or deep blues, cascade from their shoulders, giving them an almost regal appearance.

In addition to their ceremonial attire, the guards wear exquisitely designed armor that not only provides protection but also adds to their majestic appearance. Elven craftsmanship is evident in the armor's graceful lines, filigree details, and lightweight yet formidable construction.

The guards carry an array of weapons that emphasize precision and finesse. These may include slender, elegantly crafted swords or longbows that are expertly strung and balanced for accuracy. Quivers of arrows are often slung across their backs.

Some guards may carry shields made from materials like enchanted wood or silver. These shields are intricately carved and enchanted with protective spells to enhance their effectiveness.

The Elven guards are known for their silent and watchful presence. They maintain a calm and collected demeanor, seldom speaking unless it is necessary for their duties. Their eyes are sharp and ever-watchful, scanning the surroundings for any potential threats or disturbances. They are trained to react with lightning speed if danger arises. The guards move with a fluid grace that is almost dance-like. Their footsteps are soft and deliberate, and their actions are precise, reflecting the inherent poise and elegance of the Elven race.

The Elven guards are fiercely loyal to the ruler and their realm, and they take their duty to protect the throne and its occupants with utmost seriousness. Their loyalty is unwavering, and they are willing to make the ultimate sacrifice to ensure the safety and security of their people and their ruler.

In the grand marble throne room, the Elven guards are not only a symbol of protection but also a living embodiment of the rich culture and heritage of the Elven race. Their presence adds an extra layer of majesty to the room and ensures that the ruler's safety is in the hands of the most skilled and devoted protectors.

And then, last but not least, there was the queen. Damn was she beautiful. But before I could fully soak in her radiance, I felt the threatening aura of an angry spouse practically erupt from the also radiant elf beside me. 

"It's nice to see you again. I was wondering where you ran off to… leaving all of your little followers behind," The queen smiled, but it slowly slipped into something sadistic. "Want to know what happened to them?" 

"Shut the fuck up. I came here to kill you." 

"Really now?" 

"Yes, and I have backup this time."

… 

Queen Seraphina, the Corrupted Elven Monarch, stood as an imposing figure of ethereal beauty and malevolence, a paradox of grandeur and darkness that defied almost the act of description.

Her long, flowing hair, once a resplendent silver that sparkled like moonlight cascading in silken waves, had transformed into an ebony cascade that seemed to absorb the very light around her. Dark tendrils of hair, touched by the shadowy magic that coursed through her, framed her face like the wisps of night itself. They swirled and danced with a life of their own as if shadowy serpents whispered secrets only she could understand. The inky strands flowed in waves, cascading down her back like a waterfall of midnight, pooling around her as if it were a living entity, an extension of her otherworldly presence.

Her eyes, once pools of gentle amethyst that held the serene beauty of twilight, had now become windows to the abyss. Deep, dark violet orbs radiated an otherworldly presence, capturing the souls of those who dared meet her gaze. They seemed to hold an enigmatic depth, concealing untold secrets and ancient knowledge. Within those eyes, the very essence of the corrupted forest and its dark inhabitants danced a testament to her dominion over the eldritch forces that had consumed her.

Seraphina's skin, once luminous like the petals of a rare moonflower, had taken on a paler, almost porcelain complexion, marred by intricate, obsidian patterns that seemed to move and writhe. These markings flowed across her skin like an ever-changing tapestry of darkness, symbolizing her connection to the corrupted forest and the malevolent forces that had ensnared her. The patterns pulsed with sinister energy, shifting in response to her emotions, creating an eerie, hypnotic effect that left onlookers entranced and disturbed.

Her regal attire was a masterpiece of eldritch elegance. A gown of deepest black, adorned with intricate patterns of silver thread, clung to her form like a second skin. The fabric seemed to shift and sway of its own accord, mirroring the undulating movements of the shadows. A sweeping cape of midnight velvet, trimmed with ethereal silver runes, trailed behind her, billowing like the wings of a raven, adding to her majestic presence.

Her fingers, long and delicate, were adorned with dark, ornate rings that seemed to pulse with an ominous energy. Each ring bore the weight of dark enchantments, symbols of her command over the dark forces that had embraced her. When she extended her hand, the rings emitted a faint, haunting glow that whispered of her authority and mastery over the corrupted realm.

As she moved, her very presence exuded an aura of dark majesty, commanding the attention and fear of all who crossed her path. Her beauty, now a reflection of her twisted power, was as captivating as it was terrifying, a testament to the price she had paid for her corrupted sovereignty. Queen Seraphina had become a living embodiment of darkness and grandeur, a ruler both beautiful and dreadful, shrouded in the veils of her own malevolent charm. She was a queen of eldritch allure and ominous splendor, her very existence a mesmerizing enigma in the heart of the corrupted forest.

"Oh no... she's actually kind of hot."
