Just as Ashes had said, Drow Silvermoon was very happy to see her. Drow hugged her so warmly that Lorgar did not know where to put her hand. Logically speaking, a hug was the chief's way of greeting the chief. Although Silvermoon was one or two years younger than her, she should greet the chief of the clan by hugging her chest.
In the following conversation, Silvermoon did not put on an air of superiority, especially when Lorgar said that she planned to go to Neverwinter with them. Silvermoon treated her like a sister and even asked Lorgar to call her Echo. Silvermoon also told Lorgar about the witches' life in Neverwinter with great enthusiasm.
However, Lorgar did not take it seriously. After all, what Echo said was a little exaggerated. Even if Graycastle was rich in resources, it could not feed everyone. If that was the case, there would be endless food and witches to cure diseases and diseases. Wouldn't it be like the Kingdom of God in heaven?
Although she had never been out of the desert, she had heard many stories about the Northern Kingdom. Just like the Iron Sand City, only a small number of people in high positions could live a luxurious life there, and Echo should be one of them. She did not think that she could win the favor of the chief like the Osha princess. The Divine Lady who no longer inherited the Wildflame clan was obviously not as valuable as Echo.
But Lorgar did not care about this.
As long as there were stronger enemies there, she would continue to fight.
However, when it came to the Wildflame clan's plan to move to the Port of Clearwater, everyone's reaction was not as surprised as Lorgar had expected. Especially the "loyal dog of Osha" Iron Axe, who was standing aside, frowned slightly. Only Echo showed a happy smile. "Really? That's great! In this way, it won't be long before the Port of Clearwater returns to its former prosperity, and His Majesty's goal can be achieved sooner! "
"Ahem... Lady Echo," Iron Axe winked at her. "This is only their plan. It may not come true."
"That's true. I was too impatient." Huiyin smiled, slightly embarrassed.
Lorgar immediately understood the problem. As the former leader of the clans, the Wildflame clan, together with its vassals, had a total of more than 5,000 people, which was more than the total number of Sand Nation who had arrived at the Port of Clearwater. Compared to ruling a large and prestigious clan, it was obviously easier to control those small clans that were full of competition and rivalry with each other. They probably did not expect that the clans living in Iron Sand City would make up their minds so quickly. Logically speaking, the six clans, who did not have to worry about the oasis drying up, would not easily leave their own territories, and would never even seek refuge with the great chief.
However, she did not continue to discuss this matter. While Wildflame could bring them more influence, it would naturally change the balance of power in this area. If the Osha clan — or the King of Graycastle didn't have the ability to control it, it wouldn't be a bad thing to let his father take over.
After all, she was still the third princess of the Wildflame clan.
…
In the next few days, Lorgar would wander along the Clearwater Bay when she had nothing to do. Now that she had met Ashes, she was not in a hurry to go to Neverwinter. Taking advantage of this time, she intended to carefully inspect the evergreen land where Wildflame would settle down in the future.
Lorgar soon found that the speed at which the people of Graycastle built their houses was somewhat beyond her imagination. By the river bend, they built a row of hemispherical kilns, using a mixture of river sand and soil, and could fire batches of bricks every day. The fuel was not wood cut on the spot, but grayish-black stones transported from the northwest. They only needed to fill the furnace once, and it could burn for a whole day, which was even better than charcoal.
This was also the work that the people of Sand Nation participated in the most, and most of them were women and the elderly. They seemed to be divided into several groups, and every time they dug out a load of soil or carried a box of black stones, a manager would press a mark on their arm. According to the results of her observation, the amount of food distributed every day was decided by these marks.
When it came to the construction work, she rarely saw the people of Sand Nation, as the people of Graycastle almost took care of everything. They used another kind of gray powder and water to mix it into a paste, and then stacked the bricks layer by layer. Every house was built according to the same size and the same way, and she could see new changes almost every day.
Another thing that surprised her was that the people of Sand Nation and Graycastle treated her differently.
Since she left Iron Sand City, Lorgar had never covered her furry ears and tail. When she met the eyes of the people of Sand Nation of Mojin Clan, most of them would always avoid her eyes and show a look of rejection, even though they had the same skin color. She was not a stranger to this reaction, and she had long been prepared for it.
However, the people of Graycastle did not show the slightest fear or disgust, and some of the bolder ones even took the initiative to greet her, as if they were accustomed to this half-beast body.
Puzzled, she asked Ashes the question in her heart.
"Ah... you mean this, isn't it very common for witches?" Ashes spread out her hands and said, "Not to mention half-human and half-beast, there are even people who can transform into beasts. For example, there's a guy called Maggie, after his transformation, he looks much more horrifying than you. But after acting as rescue messengers a few times, people got used to it. Even if you don't look good, they won't reject you because of that. "
"Uh... is that so?" Lorgar's ears twitched. In other words, her so-called determination to face her true self and not avoid her flaws was actually unnecessary?
"By the way," she suddenly thought of another question, "are you the strongest witch in Neverwinter?"
"Well, this question..." She did not know if it was an illusion, but she suddenly felt that Ashes' expression became much more serious. "There are two kinds of situations. One is with a God's Stone of Retaliation, and the other is without. "
"If you wear a God's Stone, you can't use your ability, right?"
"Yes. Because without a God's Stone, there are several people in the Witch Union who can't defeat you. "
"Even you can't?" Lorgar was a little surprised.
"If it was before the evolution, it would be fine." Ashes nodded. "After the evolution, their abilities can no longer be explained by common sense, nor can they be matched by speed and strength. For example, Leaf, when fighting in the territory controlled by the Heart of Forest, she's almost no different from a god. Even with a God's Stone of Retaliation, it's difficult to escape from the jungle traps. In short, if we really have to fight, she's definitely the witch I don't want to face. "
The Wolf Girl's blood was boiling. "What else?"
"Although Anna is not good at fighting, her ability is impeccable. She belongs to the type of person who can't do anything without a God's Stone — of course, only in a face-to-face duel. But she's the most important witch in Neverwinter and Roland's treasure, so she definitely won't fight with you. " Ashes counted on her fingers and said, "And Nightingale is also one. If you often find someone to fight with, you'll definitely attract her attention. But that girl is narrow-minded and her ability is strange, so it's better not to fight with her. "
Lorgar wagged her tail and memorized the names one by one. "Then... what about the Maggie you just mentioned? Her ability is also to transform into a giant beast, right? "
