His reaction was 429b6db2b5 definitely more favorable 230f3cf988 than before. It seemed 1f15098f39 like a 7828ae20b9 good chance a39114df21 to push 94d3fd5fc5 forward. Serena added calmly:be7f31bdf8d6f5f1

The first thing Serena e0f5eb381f thought of after being a50d01a407 appointed as the Emperor’s 6fbaf64b3b physician was environmental improvement. The most critical 0dabfa3a81 task was addressing 0f0315e964 Azaid’s bedroom, where 913b667240 he spent most 7673959456 of his time.528a153ba8ed9074

He simply seemed 5a94d513fd to prefer darkness. Day or 8bc5df3b7b night, he 341724ff91 kept his b17a767b86 windows sealed 1d3a387308 with blackout b200d5b024 curtains and 233659c617 relied entirely 00ffd91973 on artificial ed923975d1 lighting.77856dca01f768e7

Throughout history, Emperors 98dc319df0 imbued part of 5f348ddc00 their power into 8f91d2d9aa these rings and ba1eac25e2 bestowed them upon 381f731455 loyal retainers.
