Ren felt grateful for the scrolls Elena handed him. Even though he could probably decipher them using [Appraisal], having them deciphered already saved him time.
He knew these scrolls woulde in handy during the uing battle, especially since he couldn''t use Pii right now due to its skill cooldown.
He considered the option of auctioning them if he couldn''t use them in the battle ahead.
As they ventured further, they found themselves in the Main Stage area. It was a ce where performers were weed, and it seemed like the perfect opportunity for the party to sneak in without drawing much attention.
The room had arge, elevated stage, with plush cushions reminiscent of those in movies, offering afortable and rxed viewing experience.
Currently, there was a captivating y being performed on the stage. Fey musicians and dancers showcased their talents, captivating the audience with their music, graceful movements, and asional humorous acts.

Ren and the others were cautious, knowing that if they encountered the NPC bard, their cover could be blown. They stayed in the shadows, trying to blend in with the crowd to remain unnoticed. They watched the performance with bated breath, waiting for the perfect moment to proceed with their quest.
As they stayed hidden in the Main Stage area, they silently prepared themselves for whaty ahead. Thefort of the surroundings belied the tension they felt, but they remained focused on their mission. They were determined to stop the Queen and save the Fey Realm from her destructive ns.
Fortunately, luck was on their side, and they managed to avoid detection for now. The party continued to move forward, ready to face whatever challenges awaited them, and hoping that their quest would ultimately lead to sess.
As they moved through the Main Stage area, the group had to be cautious not to draw the attention of the unseelie Feys watching over the court. To avoid detection by the guards and soldiers stationed all around, they swiftly passed the stage and hurried into the next room.
The room they entered was called The Green Room, a preparation area for performers about to go on the main stage. Vanities withrge mirrors were neatly arranged, allowing the performers to do ast-minute self-inspection before their performance. The room was filled with spare costumes, props, and musical instruments, indicating the Feys'' love for extravagant shows and music.
Isoldemented on their fondness for a good show, and Elena exined that theatres weremon in the grand castles of the Fey Queens, reflecting the Fey''s appreciation for various performances.

In these high-ss rooms, important guests and dignitaries would stay when visiting the court. The quarters were intricately designed, with exquisite decorations andfortable amenities, all to ensure the guests'' utmostfort during their stay.
There wasn''t much in these rooms so the group continued on their quest to reach the Throne Room and confront the Queen of Air and Darkness.
As they advanced through the court, they stayed vignt, ready to face any challenges that may arise, and hoping that their efforts would lead to the safety and prosperity of the Fey Realm.
They went to a door to exit the Guest Quarters, but they encountered a solid wall barring entry to anyone who wasn''t assigned a room, except for those with dimension door or simr abilities, which allowed them to bypass the barrier.
Guests who had their rooms could invite others in, but not into themon-use washrooms.
"This is just a distraction. Let''s wait for a minute," said Elena.
And after a minute the wall disappeared and they exited the Guest Room.
Finally, after exploring so many rooms and areas while battling soldiers and unseelie feys that came out from pocket dimensions, they arrived at the Throne Room, where the Queen of Air and Darkness awaited.
Inside, they saw ine and Queen Aurora, both crystalized and frozen in ce.
