Apology
-----
(Back to Drake's POV)
It seems that things went well, we had managed to get inside this dangerous sect. The Sect Master, named Thaletus, was a distrustful man, but after showing his kid's soul, that I was a Death Mage, and that I could revive him, I easily bought him over.
Also, my terms of service to join my Empire are very lax. Of course, I will ask for taxes and a large share of their production of food and materials… but that's for later, we cannot tell him the little letters yet.
Because our floating castle is like a floating Empire, we cannot produce many things ourselves, and we must sustain ourselves by using other sects as our "Vassal Nations" in a way, making them the major producers of our food and materials.
The Ice Moon was already mine, and its effects on my Empire were very easy to tell, the amazing amount of food we get daily now, and the materials constantly being delivered from the dungeon… it is all quite amazing.
