The Marius House was said to grow numerous crops, bountiful, and had even orchards filled to the brim with abundant fruits from oranges to grapes. The sprightly older man bowed and gave him a smile, "Long live to the Kingdom of Hearts—besides the usual tribute of our House, I have also brought additional numbers of the best and first of our harvest."
