The origin of Baron Dahl's wealth had always been a great mystery. The neighboring lords had been investigating this matter all along, but they had never been able to find any reliable clues.
Of course, there were still some traces found, and all these leads pointed to smuggling. But "smuggling" was never just lip service. It required trade caravans and a clear channel for the smooth circulation of goods between both sides. Among the lords located around Dahl Hill, there were some who also had social connections in bigger cities, such as the capital city, where they could pull ties and get to know more people. But ultimately, they were never able to find any evidence on how generations of barons from the Dahl family had imported and exported goods.
It was not that Baron Dahl did not do business, but rather, the business that he engaged in was all very normal. No one could find any problems at all.
