Henry's day didn't end with the Sun God Company. He still had an infinite number of issues to address. Building the foundation of his kingdom meant addressing more than just the economy. There were other pressing matters, things equally, if not more, important than trade and only mining.
After finishing his meeting with the agents, Henry headed toward the Northern Gate. The streets were alive with activity, but quieted as he passed. Snow workers had done their jobs well, clearing the endless layers of frost from the avenues and narrow streets. People paused in their work or conversations, lowering their heads in respect as he walked by. Even the barbarians, who were still adjusting to their new roles in this structured society, mimicked the gesture. Henry could see more and more of them as he walked north, few of the original residents mingled between them.
