Lavali sighed and then shook her head. "It's about the Star Ceremony," she said, her gaze coldly fixed on Fang Hong, "Do you understand?"
Fang Hong almost paused for a moment before he reacted.
He was equally at a loss for words, for in this annual festival, the Star Ceremony was the climax of the event—during the completion of the Star Ceremony, the Master of Ceremonies would give blessings on behalf of Androma to the spectators. Generally speaking, in past years, the first person to be blessed in the ceremony would only be the King of Sand.
Of course, there are exceptions. Nineteen years ago, the previous King of Sand bestowed this honor upon Barbaltan, and not long after, this current King of Sand ascended to become the king. In fact, throughout countless past years, such events have repeatedly occurred, but regardless of how it plays out, only one person is blessed during the Star Ceremony.
