It'd been a few days since Arthur left, and we began work on the project. While I wasn't sure what the finished product would really look like or mean, I believed in Arthur's decision regardless. He kept an opening in the wall specifically reserved for this. The battlements would overlook the beginning process until it was too far out of sight.

The banging sounds of industry were drowned out by an overly enthralled Elf. "This is truly incredible!" Ayda said excitedly as we supervised everything.

Ziah was the one to respond. "What do you mean?"

"Arthur's project will make ground transportation of resources and other goods far more applicable than carts or even airships in some cases." The Elf explained. "If this works, it is very possible that in the near future, the transportation industry will be completely changed."

"Yes. He did mention that in passing." I spoke up. "The General has likely had this planned for some time now."

"Why do you think that?" Ziah asked me.

Ayda replied before I could. "The placement of these tracks would be impossible without tearing down parts of Arthur's wall. However, he left room for movement inside the city limits and outside. That includes a few key points where he left vacant gates purposefully in his original design." She answered. "Even the path that he plans on taking to other cities and towns is incredibly thought out."

Then I finished with, "That, and he's been hoarding the necessary resources for quite some time. We should be able to connect more easily with the eastern coast, south, and north."

"May I ask what this is about?" Ayda inquired.

She'd been patient. Far more than I expected of her. We had left the city and moved through the outskirts to my home. It felt odd saying that. After all, it had been passed on to me.

Moving inside the kitchen, I gestured for her to sit down. She did so, albeit a little lost as to what this was all about. Grabbing something for the two of us to drink, she watched as I set it down in front of her before sitting on the opposite side of her.

"Cass," She began, and I looked at her. "What is this about?"

"Can ya put up some manner of soundproofing spell?"

Quirking a brow, Ayda did as I asked after a moment. "Now?"

Swirling the cup's contents around in a hypnotic manner, I finally answered. "Ah need yer help."

"With?"

"Ah'm aware this isn't exactly legal, but Ah'm gonna ask anyway." That immediately made Ayda warier. "What do ya know about runes and enchantment?"

The Elf regarded the question with suspicion. "More than my fair share. Not very practical in actual combat if not done beforehand. Dwarves have their own manner of runes, just like the Dragons. Enchantment is extremely different across all our races, yet at its core, it is the built upon the same foundation." Ayda explained, but my lack of reaction seemed to unnerve her. "But you knew all this, did you not?"

I shrugged. "Not the finer details, but the general gist, I guess."
