In The World Is Still Beautiful season 1 episode 10, titled "A Righteous Country," Nike and Livius visit the Kingdom of Rain, a place known for its strict laws and intense punishments. The couple is welcomed by the King of Rain, a stern ruler who does not believe in love or mercy. Despite their differences, Nike and Livius are determined to establish a positive relationship with the King and his people.
As they explore the kingdom, Nike and Livius learn about the harsh reality of life in Rain. The people live in fear of breaking the law, with small infractions resulting in severe punishment. The King, however, remains convinced that this is the only way to maintain order and prosperity in his country.
Nike, unable to stand by and watch the suffering of the people, begins to challenge the King's beliefs. She works tirelessly to convince him that love and compassion are just as important as justice and discipline. Meanwhile, Livius deals with his own struggles, feeling conflicted about the methods used by the King to maintain the rule of law.

In this episode, viewers are presented with thought-provoking questions about justice, mercy, and the role of rulers in society. As Nike and Livius navigate the complexities of the Kingdom of Rain, they must not only confront the beliefs of others but also their own preconceptions about what it means to be a just and righteous leader.
