At the moment when Vera and Colin were welcomed into the Phoenix Palace by Queen Midela, Scholar Doan was all alone enroute to the southern region of Dragon City.
As the Holy Mountain and Phoenix Palace are both located in the northern region of Dragon City, nobles with a smidgen of prestige would try their level best to settle in the north. Thus, the south naturally became a populated overlap of common people, with the buildings gradually shabbier as one goes further south.
Despite this, a manor curiously irreconcilable with its surrounding environment exists in the commoner's gathering area.
Although the location of this manor was not set spaciously, it was quite large, surrounded by trees full of tender sprouts. Several uniquely designed villas were surrounded by a fence with a stable, barracks, warehouse, garden and others, exactly like a noble manor.
