After the conference of high nobles concluded, most of the aristocrats gathered in Golden Feather City began returning to their respective fiefs.
What happened next would depend on the actions of the great noble houses. In any case, the era of peace was visibly drawing to a close.
Lurans and his grandson, Ronin, did not return immediately. They still had some matters to attend to in Golden Feather City.
With the marriage alliance secured, a group of officials was set to enter Wushan Territory to work with Wushan Castle on developing the large iron mine. This also meant that many related matters needed to be finalized.
Ronin's main task, however, was to visit Griffin Town, north of Golden Feather City. Led by Broel, Vice Leader of the Griffin Knight Order, he was there to receive the fifteen adult and five young griffins gifted by Bruno.
Ordinarily, the handover would have waited until the details of the iron mine were finalized or until the grand wedding at the end of the year.
