Chapter 120 - Viriden banquet

The banquet fell short of the opulent feasts provided by the Divine Throne, yet I found myself at home in the warm, welcoming atmosphere. The Viriden locals had poured their hearts into both the food and the entertainment, and I found myself entranced by the lively folk music played by their talented musicians. It was a gathering where Lord Griffon had opened the doors to commoners, transcending the typical exclusivity of noble events. This wasn't just a matter of practicality, as cities seldom boasted enough high-class attendees for a banquet, but ran deeper. The genuine affection in everyone's eyes for Lord Griffon was palpable.
