They are led into the throne room, where a crowd of citizens lines the sides, with armed guards blocking the path down the center that leads to the throne.
Eolande steps up to the throne and the people cheer.
Wicker walks in front of her, and places the crown upon her head, and then, much to the crowds surprise and delight, leans in and kisses her. She appears surprised, then closes her eyes and goes with it.
The crowd roars with excitement.
Finally, the two part, and Eolande pulls Wicker up to stand beside her. She waves her hand, motioning silence.
"We have won a great victory on this day, my people. The puppet king and the treacherous Meka have been defeated, and we can rebuild our city until we have re-established ourselves as a respected and benevelous neighbour to the other kingdoms, as we were before. My people, the time has come for the kingdom of Perados to reclaim it's former glory!"
The crowds roar rattles the windows and the rafters i the ceiling. She motions again for silence.
"But this victory, it would not have been possible without the group of young heroes who came to us in our time of need!" She motions toward the team.
"These people, who have put their lives on the line and asked for almost nothing in return! They are the real heroes here today! And let's show them such deeds do not go unrewarded!"
The cheering multiplies tenfold, and the team members are hoisted into the air by the crowd and carried around.
