Level 40 quote

I do not have what is required of a ruler. During my time ruling in place of my brother... I have allowed rebellion, been captured, and displayed my own powerlessness and disgrace.

I swear to not give up and to look to the future.

Level 40 quote

Level 40 quote

Macedon, my homeland, was founded by Iote, a king born as a slave. It was not a wealthy country in those days. However, the people settled in the thick forests and took to building a country with wills of steel. As a result of their efforts, Macedon entered a new season, and their work bore the fruit of abundance. Enduring a long winter carries the promise of spring. In a way, it is a reflection of Macedon's victory. So, let us celebrate this season together and soar even higher. So that next year we may celebrate this day again, and all it represents.
