A few peaceful months sauntered by after Alethea had returned home. She spent most of her days attending meetings with the royal Silverian adviser's, discussing political issues, aspirations for the future and when the suitable time for the coronation ceremony. To the numerous advisers's Silveria had long been without a ruler, since Lord Devastator went missing years ago and left the kingdom in a state of chaos. This would seem to be the best decision for the kingdom, but to Alethea it felt like imprisonment. Going against the feelings and thoughts she agreed and so the plans went forth to prepare for the day she would take the throne of Silveria as its rightful Queen.
The news of the coronation spread quickly throughout the kingdom and in a weeks time all the preparations were made for the event. Every little detail was going according to plan, but half way through the ceremony foreign forces invaded the kingdom from the east. Morrisa Kaida Aut'abothua, Captain of the Royal Elite classified Soldier's immediately took responsibility for escorting Alethea to safety. Despite mixed feelings Alethea reluctantly followed Morrisa through the ancient tunnels below the palace to escape from the invaders. They were almost free from the ancient walls, when the enemy ambushed them from behind causing Morrisa to stay behind while Alethea escaped.
Alone Alethea made her way back to the area surrounding The Silver Raven Inn, the only place she felt safe and no one would find her. During the time at the Inn she made acquaintances with Alister Ecrition, a handsome, strong and powerful noble lord who almost immediately took Alethea�s fancy. It was quite obvious to any one of their attraction to one another, and small feelings. Soon the both found small connections between Silveria and the kingdom that was once lost to Alister.
Sparda the man whom she was once promised to and the killer of Alethea�s mother stepped forth from the shadows once more, with a promise to her that Silveria will be returned to her safely. Tiny sparks of feelings emerged from within Alethea�s heart that night, frightened by the old feelings and the loss of their relationship she reluctantly pulled herself away from the situation unsure of what the future will bring.
