Strange welcome

When our group arrived at the gates of the city, I was surprised by how quickly we were let in.

It wasn't that there was a short line or the queue moved fast, it was that there was a guard that came forward that brought us to another gate that had no one around.

When I asked what this was, the guard told me that this gate had been specially set aside for our arrival.

I couldn't help revealing a surprised look when I heard this.

An entire gate for a busy city like this was booked and people were kept away for an entire day, there was no doubt that this would have a large impact on the city.

This might make sense if it was done for a king or another noble that was in a high position, but why would they do it for someone like me?

I looked at Shaka and he shook his head to show that he didn't have a clue either.

It seemed that there was something happening in this Bright Water City that we weren't aware of…
