Meeting Amidst the Banquet

A few days later, in Rafoldrod, a night banquet was held in the grand mansion of a certain successful and well-known smithy family.

The mansion itself was a testament to their craftsmanship with its architecture and intricate ironwork that spoke to their legacy.

This family had been the cornerstone of Rafoldrod's metalworking industry for more than a hundred years, providing a wide array of metalworks to the city's inhabitants.

When the government extended an offer to produce parts for the revolutionary traction engine, they were among the three families that enthusiastically accepted the task.

True to form, doing the government's bidding had proven immensely rewarding, and their wealth had expanded exponentially as a result.

The night of the banquet was a resplendent affair, celebrating their remarkable growth in wealth and prosperity.
