Broken and Princess Alora stepped into the blacksmith workshop, and as expected, it was much busier than usual. Word of Broken's arrival had spread quickly, and the workshop was filled with eager anticipation. The blacksmiths, while still working, paused briefly, standing as if to greet someone of great importance.
"I heard you've all been missing Baron Broken. Well, here he is," Princess Alora announced, her words met with a cheer from the blacksmiths.
Each of them voiced their excitement.
"Baron Broken, I've heard Slumdon has improved a lot. I'd love to visit the city someday."
"Everyone will be welcome to work in Slumdon once Baron Broken has finished building it," Princess Alora added.
Broken turned to her. "Are you serious, Princess?"
"Well, you could inspire them to create even better equipment, and that would benefit the kingdom too. So yes, I'm serious."
