Magical City

We had been traveling a considerable distance by carriage. We took rests at some of the villages along the way, but over five days had passed since we departed. 

Our direction had been slightly closer to the kingdom than the empire but we were headed somewhere else. 

It was a bit much making Fay do all the driving so now Rock had taken over those duties. 

"I know it's late to ask but... where exactly are we headed? And what's the objective?" 

"Hm, that's right. I should prolly tell ye lot, yeah? Ye don't mind, do ye Princess?"

"No."

"Actually—" the geezer began. 

Our destination is the magical city of Craftswick. As the name suggests, it's said to be the city most advanced with magic technology. 

It's considered part of the kingdom officially, but since it's so far from the capital, it hasn't suffered much from the war or fighting demons, allowing unique development all its own apparently.
