Cardinal Ansel's Denouement (1)

Cardinal Ansel looked outside his carriage window with a pensive look. Holy Knights traveled on horses outside on either side of the carriage, giving him some sort of comfort.

He was running yet another foolish errand for the Pope. This particular errand was sending him to the Transcendent Merchant Guild, a guild that did not exist in any of the previous time lines.

This was the third time he had relived this life, but things were extremely different. A prince that should not have been born had been, a merchant group that should not have existed now did, and there were unifications of kingdoms that should have remained indifferent to each other, not to mention the other oddities that had arisen.
