Chuckling, Alex took his own glass, enjoying the smooth yet slightly salty taste of the wine.
Their lunch consisted of rare ocean delicacies, including:
Skywhale Carpaccio, thinly sliced and seasoned with deep-sea spices.
Golden Lobster Tail, roasted over enchanted blue fire.
Tidal Fruit Sorbet, a refreshing dessert that melted in their mouths.
As they ate, the ocean beyond them shimmered, and a pod of massive sea serpents swam past the restaurant, their sleek, scaled bodies reflecting the sunlight like liquid silver.
Lilith rested her chin on her hand, watching the creatures with interest.
"I could get used to this."
Alex smirked. "So could I."
For a moment, the two simply enjoyed the atmosphere—the peaceful lull of the ocean, the hushed murmurs of other diners, and the sheer beauty of the world beneath the waves.
After their incredible meal, Alex and Lilith continued their adventure through Velyria Unaterra, indulging in the city's most luxurious experiences.
