To the people of the Frontier City, honoring those who died to the tragedy of the Calamity Beast is something they feel is a necessary thing to do, and bearing witness for such an event is something so honorable for them, not to mention being the one who did it, something that they think is only the rightful thing for the immortal-like young man to do given the fact that he is a deity-like figure to them, saving their current City Lord from an untimely demise at the hand of the Calamity Beast, and eventually giving them the power to face this beast themselves.
