Chapitre 62: By The Sea

Stepping out of the portal gate, Laina, Margaret, and Kol arrived in the small town of Kepping. It was busting with life. Townsfolk, travelers, and merchants were all going about their day. 

Laina took in a deep breath of fresh air. She could smell the salt and ocean in the air. Kepping was a seaside town, famous for its fresh seafood and saltwater wine. Seeing the people go about their day brought a smile to Laina's face. 

She could see the townsfolk communicating with another with smiles and warm greetings. Compared to the bickering and uptight nobility, it was a welcome sight. 

"This is why the nobility is the least of my concerns," Laina declared as she pointed to the bustling town before them. 

She turned to Margaret and continued, "As long as the people benefit from what I do, that's all that matters."
