Chapter 39: Steam Engines
The sun rose over the rapidly developing monster city, casting its golden light on the ongoing construction and the bustling streets below. Vaelrith stood on a balcony overlooking the city, taking in the sight with a sense of pride and determination.
He has been reflecting on the recent influx of diverse monster races that had joined their ranks. The city had become a haven for those seeking refuge and a chance to be part of something greater. The Nagas, for instance, had arrived seeking a new home after being outcasts in their own land. Their leader, Zarna (Vaelrith named her), had approached Vaelrith with a plea for sanctuary.
The Fox-Folk, known for their cunning and agility, had also joined the city. Their leader, Vixen (also named by Vaelrith), had brought her people in search of a place where their talents could be appreciated and put to good use.
