Capítulo 40: Meetings with traders

Thursday, March 23, 1033, Althoria Kingdom Calendar

► Duke Arganus Castle

In a conference room that could accommodate 20 people, servants were busy preparing for a meeting scheduled to start at 9 AM. The merchants who had arrived with their horse-drawn carriages were visible from the balcony of Prince Philip's room. With his sharp brown eyes, Prince Philip watched the merchants while the servants busied themselves with preparing his attire. He had just finished bathing, and the preparations for the meeting were two hours away.

The merchants, who had arrived as early as 6 AM, showed their respect and admiration for Duke Arganus as both a friend and a ruler they held in high regard. They understood the importance of this meeting and were ready to discuss a brighter future.
