This is a grand palace filled with various types of decorations and luxurious items. No matter how powerful a king or wealthy a person is, they would feel humbled in this palace, acknowledging its supreme grandeur.
 
On the western wall, atop a twelve-step elevated platform, stood a majestic throne crafted from emeralds and adorned with green pearls. A large, imposing man sat on this throne, dressed in opulent clothing. His head was crowned with a royal crown that added to his authoritative presence. This man was none other than King Burzam.
 
Nearby, the council members sat on soft mats, their heads bowed as if seeking forgiveness. The entire palace was silent, with an atmosphere so still it felt as if death had paid a visit. 
 
Breaking the silence, King Burzam reached into his pocket and pulled out a small magical mirror, no larger than his palm. He opened his mouth and chanted some mystical incantations known only to him. As soon as he finished, the mirror revealed everything that had transpired between the heroine Zulaihat and the bandit leader Ausur and his men, from the beginning to the end.
 
Upon seeing this, King Burzam let out a roar that terrified everyone present, as they knew that such a shout from him was never a good sign. For ten seconds, the tension remained high until he closed his mouth, as if he had received a death sentence. He then spoke in a harsh voice reminiscent of a donkey's bray, saying, "Indeed, heroine Zulaihat has made a grave mistake, deceived by her heart into thinking she could confront me and rescue her sister Luzaiba from my grasp. I swear by my mystical power, I will make her death the most gruesome."
 
After making this declaration, he returned the magical mirror to his pocket. Then, he raised his hand and signaled to a warrior, who immediately approached him with respect and offered greetings.
 
King Burzam, with eyes as red as embers, looked at him and said, "O guardian of my city, warlord Bazzaru ibnu Siyaran, know that I have summoned you to inform you that within a week, an unprecedented battle will be upon us. This time, my queen Luzaiba and I will lead the fight. Therefore, I want the troops to be on high alert, prepare the weapons of war, and intensify the training of the magical beasts in the Cave of Plague."
 
Upon hearing these words from the king, Warlord Bazzaru bowed and said, "As you command, my lord. Obeying your orders is my duty." He then stood up and headed towards a door in the palace, followed by his guards.
 
After giving this command, another warrior took a large horn from his back and blew it powerfully. Upon hearing the sound, everyone in the palace stood up instantly, as if they had heard the call of death. According to tradition, this horn signaled the end of the court session and the king's return to the royal quarters.
 
With pride and immense authority, King Burzam rose from his throne, descended the steps, and approached a special door that led to the royal chambers. His escorting guards and officials quickly followed him, and once they were through the door, the court dispersed, with everyone going their separate ways.
