While Vicente turned his attention to producing artifacts in Grandis, Rory and the others had crossed the entire Seidel Kingdom and arrived in Metal City.
That morning, Rory, Sarah, Casey, Onyx, and the Dark Path woman of the 5th stage arrived near the city Vicente had founded five years earlier.
At the sight of the metal jungle that had sprung up in this area, surrounded by mountains, the group that had last passed through over 2 years ago couldn't help but smile to see the place today.
The Metal City was standing and much larger than before, having passed the 400,000 mark of people living there, with all the land that could be used for construction having been used.
Trains could be seen leaving the city, heading into the interior of Scott Province, a grand sign, an indication at least some of what they had prepared before they left had held.
