Chapter 411: Duke of Dorn
??Chapter 411 Duke of Dorne
??Dorn in late autumn can't feel much coolness.
??The scorching sun is shining down on the yellow land, and only the wind on the Narrow Sea can relieve the heat.
??The Spear Tower and Sun Tower with the architectural features of Rhoyna stand on both sides of the old palace, symbolizing the combination of Martell's spear and the Rhoyna sun.
??Today, a group of Dornish nobles gathered in the Throne Hall of the Tower of the Sun. They will witness the major changes in the political situation of Dorne and the birth of a new ruler.
??The soaring Tower of the Sun has golden vaults and leaded glass. The sun shines directly from the circular vaults, reflecting the pale marble floors in colorful colors.
??There were originally two almost identical seats on the high platform in the Throne Hall, one of which had the golden gun logo of the Martell family on the back of the chair, and the other had the sunburst pattern of Rhoyna on the back of the chair. But now, one of the two chairs has been removed, and the pattern on the back of the only remaining chair has also been replaced with a coat of arms intersecting a shooting star and a long sword.
??Of course the Dorne nobles know that it is the coat of arms of the Dane family in Starfall City.
??Although Caesar had long guessed that Caesar planned to push Natalie Dane to the throne of the ruler of Dorne, when this scene really happened today, the mood of the Dorne nobles was still extremely complicated.
?? Of course, no one would object to Caesar's decision in this situation.
??After three years of war, Dorn is already extremely weak, and the political ecology has also undergone earth-shaking changes.
??The Martell family has long since declined in a series of failures and setbacks, and it can even be said to be the opposite of the Dorne nobles.
??Nowadays, the coat of arms of the blazing sun halberd has completely lost its appeal in the hearts of the nobles of Dorne.
??It is not so difficult to accept a new ruler's coat of arms.
?? Moreover, Dane is also a traditional Dorne nobleman, a member of his own family. The proud Dorne people have not been conquered by outsiders.
??The Dornishmen can still comfort themselves in this way.
??Many Dorne nobles are secretly looking at the Countess of Starfall City standing in the front row, secretly thinking about whether they can share the supreme power of ruling Dorne through marriage.
?? What's more, the countess is so beautiful.
She was wearing a dignified and elegant palace gown. The exquisite tailoring process outlined her perfect figure curve. Her long brown hair was pulled into a lady's bun, revealing a swan-like elegant and slender white neck. Her delicate features were matched with purple The crystal eyes made the young countess the focus of all eyes.
??However, some smart people know that the Countess has an ambiguous relationship with the Storm King. If Natalie is really Caesar's lover, then their idea of ??marrying is asking for trouble.
??The melodious bell rang suddenly.
??The Dorne nobles came back to their senses, and saw the Storm King in a sky-blue dress slowly walking into the hall.
??Everyone fell silent, only the sonorous footsteps of Samwell in the hall, the atmosphere was solemn and dignified.
The Dorne nobles present were both in awe and admiration for the Storm King. They witnessed the miracle of his resurrection on Blood Reef Island, and also witnessed that the other party stirred up the situation in Dorne with only one man and one dragon. Bring House Martell to its knees.
?? Such a person is a well-deserved conqueror of Dorne.
??So when Caesar showed kindness to the Martell family and respect for the power of the Dorne families, the nobles surrendered with peace of mind.
??Under the eyes of everyone, Samwell stepped onto the high platform, turned around and stood still.
??The sun shines through the glass dome on the top and enters the hall to form a pure beam of light, which envelopes Samwell and casts a faint golden halo on him.
??His gaze slowly swept across a group of nobles with many graces, and finally stopped on Natalie, smiling slightly.
?? "Natalie Dayne."
??Hearing the Storm King's call, Natalie's heart was pounding, and her chest exploded with joy mixed with a trace of nervousness.
??She lifted the long skirt that dragged the floor, went up the steps, and knelt down on one knee in front of Samwell:
?? "Your Majesty Caesar."
??Samwell drew out the giant sword behind his back, put the blade on Natalie's shoulder, and said loudly:
"I, Samwell Caesar, under the witness of the gods, in the name of the Storm King, canonized Natalie Dane as the Duke of Starfall City, guarded by Dorne. From now on, you will be in charge of the authority of Dorne, Lead the nobles of Dorne and watch over the people of Dorne."
??Natalie's crisp voice then sounded:
?? "I, Natalie Dane, in this sacred place, swear to the gods, and take the responsibility of protecting Dorne from today, and take it as a glory until the day when my life ends."
??Samwell withdrew his giant sword, and a warm smile appeared on his face again.
??He lifted Natalie up, took her to the only seat and sat down, then stepped aside.
??Trystane Martell under the high stage knew that it was time for him to express himself.
??Even though he had already made psychological preparations, he couldn't help feeling sore when he thought that from now on, the power of the Martell family would be handed over to the Dane family.
??But no matter what he thought, Tristan knew he had no choice.
??Caesar has already given enough mercy to the Martell family, but if they are unwilling to cooperate, the end is destined to be even more miserable.
??Trystane took a deep breath, walked out of the crowd slowly, knelt down in front of the high platform, bowed his head and said loudly to the Duchess above:
?? "I, Tristan of the Martell family, under the witness of the seven gods, swear by the name of the Sunspear, to offer unparalleled loyalty to Duke Natalie Dayne."
??Before he finished speaking, the young Martell family patriarch was sobbing.
?? But in the end, he still completed the allegiance ceremony.
??Next, a group of benevolent nobles also stepped forward to swear allegiance to Duke Natalie.
?? Natalie, who was sitting on the high platform, responded one by one, accepting their allegiance.
??During this process, her heart went from uneasy at the beginning to gradually calm down later.
??Because Natalie knows that no matter what happens, there will always be a tall figure behind her guarding her and helping her clear all obstacles.
?? It was this man who brought her from the Crimson Mountains to Starfall City, and now, he held her hand and led her to sit on the position of the supreme ruler of Dorne.
??Natalie admired him, loved him, and followed his footsteps wholeheartedly.
??Even if she doesn't desire power, and is even afraid of being the focus of everyone's attention, Natalie is willing to accept any title as long as he needs it.
??After the allegiance ceremony, Samwell stepped forward again and extended his hand to Natalie.
??Natalie held her with a smile, and let him lead her down the high platform, out of the hall, and to the steps of the Old Palace.
??On the square in front of him, tens of thousands of Dornish people had already gathered.
?? After they saw Caesar and Natalie, they burst into cheers.
?? "Your Majesty Caesar!"
?? "Duke Dayne!"
??The white dragon Cleopatra flies across the square, casting a terrifyingly large shadow.
??At this moment, the ancient Dorne Territory has entered a brand new era.
??
