When Komer and his party appeared at the Bahomon Port dock following the flow of the Catania River, the entire Bahomon was astounded. Whether it was the indigenous people from the Caucasus itself or the new immigrants from the three northern regions, whether it was the half-beastmen who had newly obtained citizenship after fleeing from the Funiu Mountain Range or the barbarians who had trekked from the Cordillera Wilderness to work in Bahomon, they were all shocked by the news—the Catania River route had truly officially opened!
While many common people were still immersed in this massive surprise, the sensitive traders had already begun to ponder what the opening of this "Golden Waterway" would bring to the Caucasus and what they should now do.
