Over the span of his short career, Ves rapidly rose in prominence.
His grand accomplishments as well as his success raised his stature to a height that put him above the level of commoners.
While Ves still took his humble roots to heart, it was undeniable that he had gained enough power, wealth and influence to negotiate with entire states!
Even a great statesman like Senator Tovar had to take him seriously!
With such a status, why should he continue to entertain his grandfather who attempted to mediate on behalf of the old family and the conservative faction?
They were barely different from the common citizens of the Bright Citizens! Despite all of their accomplishments, the traditionalists in the family still abided by the laws and customs of their home state!
Though this was a very righteous and honorable stance to uphold, the true beneficiary of this tradition was the Bright Republic rather than the Larkinson Family!
