Ep. 4: Nike undergoes the Rite of Illumination to prove her worthiness for Livius
Aired on April 27, 2014
The Ministry of Priesthood requires approval for royal marriages and rejects foreigners like Nike. Consequently, they mandate that she complete the Rite of Illumination to demonstrate her suitability as Livius's wife. This trial involves entering an underground cave to locate a specific temple. Within this sacred site, Nike must retrieve an ancient ring. She is required to bring this artifact back to serve as her engagement ring, thereby satisfying the religious authorities' conditions for the union.
