Sui Xiong was unaware of all the trouble plaguing Javier as he himself was busy.
After he had bidden farewell to Javier, who had failed in being a messenger and had left regretfully, Sui Xiong decided to do something big.
For starters, he wanted to move Rye Fortress, which he had recently completed, from its original spot in the south of Rye City to somewhere further south.
This fortress was originally meant to guard Rye Canyon, but this canyon had already joined the Republic, causing the fortress to lose its purpose. Sui Xiong thus decided to move it further south to kill two birds with one stone by allowing to become a topic of interest with its unique infrastructure while using it as a central building for refugees to use as a safe zone.
