While the tense wait continued in the Witch Council hall, the doors suddenly opened with a loud noise. When everyone's eyes turned to the door, Engfa and Charlotte entered side by side, with a majesty befitting queens, with large and powerful steps. Both of them walked like symbols of power, dominating the hall. There was determination in their eyes, a proud nobility in their stance. As they walked side by side, their auras shook the hall, all eyes were on them.

Luther and Myx were right behind them, both of them walking solemnly. In the middle of them was Elysandra, her hands bound by a powerful spell, her head bowed. Her gaze was down, completely defeated. The power radiating around Engfa and Charlotte created an air of defiance in the hall. The Waraha family stood defiantly before the realm.

Myx sat Elysandra down hard on the floor in the middle of the table. Elysandra's eyes were still down, confused about what to do. Everyone's attention was focused on Elysandra at that moment.

Engfa and Charlotte walked towards their thrones in the center of the hall. Their strength could be felt with each step, the energy of the hall almost vibrating. Both of them sat gracefully on their thrones, Engfa's eyes shining with authority. Charlotte, likewise, maintained a calm yet determined stance.

Luther sat on his throne next to his wife and mother Rowena, his eyes fixed on his daughter and Engfa. There was a look in his eyes that held both a father's pride and the weight of their hardships. The heavy atmosphere of the council was intensified by Engfa and Charlotte's presence. They had taken their rightful place as queens of the realm, and everyone was waiting for this moment when justice would be served.

Engfa took a deep breath, her eyes scanning the hall from end to end. Then she slowly cleared her throat, the silence that filled the hall deepening for a moment. Engfa rose slowly and gracefully from her throne. All eyes in the hall focused on her as her power and authority filled the hall. The aura around her displayed the might of an unwavering queen.

He looked towards the lords and ladies, his gaze sweeping over each one. Then, he bowed his head slightly and bowed to them. "My lords, my ladies..." he began, his voice echoing powerfully to every corner of the hall. "Today, we have witnessed one of the darkest betrayals of our realm. But remember, we have overcome this betrayal and we will bring justice."

The determination and power in Engfa's voice was felt throughout the hall. Each lord and lady honored Engfa by bowing their heads in response to his greeting.

Engfa took a deep breath and continued. "Elysandra Blackthorn, as you know, has not given up on her obsessive obsession with me for a long time. She has tried to bind me to herself with magic many times, but she has always failed. Her minor misdeeds at the beginning may have been forgivable, but her recent actions are absolutely unforgivable." Engfa's voice hung over everyone in the room like a heavy shadow.

"My queen dared to attack my soulmate Charlotte with a terrible spell. This treacherous attack on our home and my wife is completely unacceptable!" Engfa's voice rose, his eyes flashing as the whispers in the crowd suddenly stopped.

"And it didn't stop there. When I went to take her to be tried, I warned her many times to surrender. But Elysandra resisted me. And worse..." Engfa was silent for a moment. His heart was tight, it was hard to say the words that were stuck in his throat. He looked at Charlotte suddenly, and she responded with a look that didn't understand what was happening to him. Despite the pain he felt inside, Engfa knew he had to say this.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Then he turned back to the council. "Worse," he continued, his voice trembling slightly. "He tried to touch me without my consent, by blocking my powers." Engfa's words instantly turned the silence in the hall into an icy atmosphere. Everyone was shocked.
