Ronin had arrived at Wushan Castle with only four people, but the returning party included escorting Knights, recruited artisans, and a Message Bird Trainer from Wushan Castle, swelling their numbers to well over forty.
After he offered a relocation fee, the number of apprentices and artisans willing to accompany him to Mountain Forest Town increased significantly.
With the help of a Civil Clerk from Wushan City, Wodun and George screened and vetted these people. After removing those who were just trying to scam the relocation fee, thirty-six remained.
The group consisted of: two Blacksmiths, five Blacksmith Apprentices;
three tailor apprentices;
two Carpenters, twelve carpenter apprentices, one Artisan;
two Masons, five mason apprentices;
and one Potter, three potter apprentices.
Although Ronin was willing to pay a handsome relocation fee, it was still mostly apprentices who came; the majority of the artisans chose not to leave Wushan City.
