# Room of Princess Sri Adista Wijayatunggaldewi
five elegant and beautiful women in a magnificent and stylish room in the royal palace of Paragon are currently busy making up.
One woman with 40 years of age seemed to be trying to make up and braid the hair of a young girl in front of her.

This 40-year-old woman looks still beautiful and graceful despite being old.
Seeing how beautiful she is currently, it is inconceivable to see how gorgeous she was when she was young.
This old woman is no longer young, but her beauty is still left and never fades from her face.
Wearing a gold dress and crown, this woman is the Queen and biological mother of the princess named "Shima Kalingga."
"Adis ...... why do you look unhappy?" Said the Queen.
"Mother…. can Adista ask you something? "Adis asked, even though she looked doubtful.
"Oh? What kind of question? "The Queen asked again.
"Mother…. when you meet Father for the first time, what do you feel? "
Adista's question immediately made the Queen surprised because, in the eyes of the Queen, Adista was a girl who was still pure.
The King and Queen always provide positive and moral lessons to their only child.
They make every effort to provide classy education and even try to minimize negative information that can contaminate their child's mindset.
Adista's age is already a teenager, not a child anymore; currently, she is 16 years old but likes to ask critical questions.
Although Adis likes to ask questions, she never asks about love. The question coming from Adis suddenly made the Queen surprised.
Although surprised, the Queen tried to answer Adis's question.
"The figure of your father is a person who can always make me happy and smile," Adista's mother replied.
"Although sometimes your father likes to make me cry, the tears coming out from my eyes is not a cry of sadness or disappointment. "
"Once before your father became a king, he was a prince who often ventured and fought on the battlefield. The times when your father went to battle, and it was this that made me often cry for fear that your father would never return to my arms. "
"Your father is a man who is strong, polite, and responsible, that's why I was amazed by your father a long time ago."
"These all the things that make me feel so warm every time I'm near your father."
Adis's eyes filled with joy after hearing her mother's explanation and then smiled and spoke, "Mother, why is the feeling of mother to father is the same as how I feel to Reno?."
"What do you mean, Adis?" the Queen a bit surprised, hearing her only daughter statement.
"Yes mother, Reno is a polite young man, every time I am near him, I feel safe like there is a guardian angel who is ready to look after me."

"Reno is also strong and brave like dad because the young man has saved me in the lake," Adis continued.
The Queen was silent.
"The way Reno looks at me is also different from others, not like other men I met," Adis continued to speak and did not stop.
"Reno said he would approve father's invitation and participate in the competition ... ..." Adis then fell silent, her eyes glazed again.
Seeing the look on Adis's face, the Queen suddenly shocked.
"Adis was crying, but Adis's tears are like mother's tears when dad goes to battle." Adis then bowed shyly.
"Hahahahahaha ... my beautiful and innocent child, how could you able to quickly judge a man you just met?" The Queen laughed.
"Mother, I know Reno is a new person in the kingdom, and I know how all the characteristics of men when they see me, but Reno is different from other men." Reply Adis
Hearing Adis's explanation, the Queen fell silent again.
She did not want to immediately explain that what she felt was the seeds of "love."
The Queen will begin to carefully answer the child's questions this time and try to avoid talking about love.
"Adis, the feelings you have are not wrong, it's just that, let everything go as it is, follow the flow, like water flowing from a high place to a lower place, don't judge someone too fast."
Now Adis fell silent.
The Queen stood up, along with three royal maidens who began to help Adis wear a white dress with silver and diamonds.
# A grand room for the appointment ceremony
Reno's appointment ceremony to become a royal admiral officially begun.
On the stage, two great seats occupied by the King and Queen.
To the right of the King stood four people of the senior royal officials.
The four senior officials of this Kingdom are Patih Hamungkubhumi, Admiral Prayoga, Prayudi, and Arok Ken.
While on the left, stand the King sits sweetly with the Queen and his only daughter of the Kingdom.
The Queen wore a white gown, and the King wore gold-colored clothes.
The King uses armor, while the Queen wears a dress.
The golden royal crown, complete with colorful gems, sticks between their heads.
Patih and the three admirals wore silver armor while Adista looked elegant with a white and shiny dress like a snow princess.
The red carpet seemed to stretch long before them.
The stretched red carpet stretches along in the middle room, starting from the main entrance of the meeting room, extending to the middle of the stage right where the King and Queen sit.
Around the red carpet stretching perpendicularly, it neatly lined up the royal officials, guests, and royal guards.
On the left-wing is the location of royal officials and guests, while the right side is the royal guards complete with iron armor, shields, spears, and swords.
Outside the main door of this room, there was a 16-year-old young man using bronze armor, looking handsome and charming, standing tall, waiting for a signal.
The looks of this young man's face can make all women kneel and beg him.
"Young admiral, please enter through this door, the appointment ceremony has already begun," said one of the guards before Reno.
Reno then walked and opened the big door in front of him.
"Thanks," the two guards in front of the door suddenly pushed open the main entrance.
When the main door opens, the sounds of classical and colossal music echo around the room.
All guests of the royal officials and guests who attended the inauguration ceremony immediately focused their eyes on Reno.
Reno then walked, his body still sturdy and handsome, his vision confidently staring forward, walking towards the stage where the King and the Queen waited.
The participants were silent and were amazed by the young man who was currently walking towards the stage.
The young women from guests seemed hypnotized by the bravery and good looks of the young man in front of them.
Reno finally arrived before the King then knelt and looked down.
Immediately, the strains of classical and colossal music that had been heard loudly stopped.
Sri Adista looked amazed by Reno's appearance this time.
Sri Adista began to compare the young man in front of her today with the young man when Adista first met Reno in the lake.
Sri Adista then began to imagine Reno, who always wore his favorite robe, then saw Reno, who was currently using bronze armor, fascinated on how the young man had changed.
The King then stood up, pulled the sword that was on his waist, then put it on Reno's head and said, "In the name of God and kingdom, I am king Paragon at this moment appoint Reno Prayuda as the royal admiral of Paragon," said the King loudly.
The sword in his hand then touched the right and left the shoulder and then stopped right above Reno's head.
"Witnessed by all the royal officials and guests, Reno Prayuda has at this moment become the young admiral of the Paragon kingdom from today until the deadline is not determined," the King shouted.
