Holding at Bay

As the sun rose over Aurelius City, casting its golden hues across the landscape, the city began to awaken to the new day.

Meanwhile, Kahn's request for money as a reward from the council the previous day had not been made without reason. 

In his current circumstances, he possessed everything including resources. But despite his arrival in the Beast Empire eleven months ago, he found himself without a penny to his name.

Though his stay in the empire would not be lengthy, Kahn knew that he needed money to avoid a life of begging and to maintain the appearance befitting a saint. 

This money would serve various purposes, including acquiring items or doing certain things in the eyes of others that would solidify his identity as a member of the Fenrirborne Tribe. 

While acquiring money may not have held great importance in the grand scheme of things, Kahn had reached a point where he required nothing else; so he asked it out of pure habit.
