Roland whistled as he sauntered up the stairs which led to the former royal castle of Nemoris. All around him, restoration work was ongoing to turn the ruined castle into a new castle, or almost new. Another fortnight had gone by and in that time, the affairs of Nemoris had been steadied.
Nemoris was now a city not a kingdom. The new city was being rebuilt in the shape of Eldoria. Statues of the former king had been brought down. The secret path between Eldoria and Nemoris was being paved into a wide cement road.
Already trade had been facilitated and people could move freely from Nemoris to other cities in Eldoria. Migrations had already started with some people moving into the new city and others moving out. Everything was moving positively and all they were waiting for was the return of the king and the empire would officially be declared one, under one emperor.
