Rivenfall Base was a settlement not far from Southreach.
Although small, it was quite populous.
Many people who were unwilling or unable to enter Southreach ended up staying here.
As a result, the population was highly transient.
At that moment, in the bedroom of a house in Rivenfall Base, a man was propped up against the headboard.
A trusted subordinate stood before him, head lowered, reporting the information he had gathered.
"The Government of Southreach has officially issued a notice that a ceremony to invest the new City Lord will be held soon. The opposition from the Woods and Forrest Families has been eliminated by Maisie Joyce, and Keith Preston has also expressed his support for her. Furthermore, the Base Chief of Bloodfall, Claire Chapman, has been staying at The Citadel. Rumor has it that Maisie Joyce is already engaged to him, and they plan to wed as soon as she succeeds the title of City Lord."
