Read this story to remember this word:
In the kingdom of Celestia, where heroes were born from myth and legend, there lived a warrior whose deeds against dragons earned him the adulation of all. Townsfolk sang his praises, their adulation as ceaseless as the tides. Yet, within this hero’s heart grew a longing for a legacy beyond adulation—for deeds that would sow peace rather than bask in the glory of battle. Thus, he set forth to unite the warring factions of Celestia, his quest for peace earning a deeper, more enduring form of adulation—one rooted not in the deeds of the past but in the promise of a harmonious future.
