Chapter 39 - Chapter 39

Three days after Artemis's departure from House Horriss to House of Sea Stone ruled by Lord Hofun. Lucian Mithandir arrived in Maldonia through the gates of House Horriss. Lord Aethelind properly welcomed him as if he was the King. As usual, he threw a feast on his name and whores danced naked on the hall. During that time, it was House Horriss who had wealth stacked up to the full. When the realm beggared for money, Lord Akirbus made sure to reach out to House Horriss first before the main bank in overseas. One of the many reasons why King Luca Arteides was inclined to wed Artemis's mother was because he needed money, so the wedding was purely an act of service to the crown.
