Among the continuous stream of caravans, four wagons stood out conspicuously. Behind them were a few merchants who seemed to have joined the noble's procession for protection. But the four carriages stood out in the group.
The first three were luxurious, adorned with intricate carvings, gold embellishments, and silk curtains that fluttered in the wind. They bore the noble clan insignia of the Golden Orchards.
All the carriages of this clan were luxurious. However, the fourth wagon was in a league of its own. It was pulled by massive horses which seemed to be low-level spirit beasts, their manes shimmering in ethereal colors. The coachman was dressed head-to-toe in garments woven from the finest silks, embroidered with golden threads.
