The Sage of Einar

When Darían reached the top of the hill, he was quite surprised to see the strange walls that were being built.

If the tribe wall was rare due to the shape it was, the future palace wall was a kind of work of art that had a star shape.

Which correctly covered the entire hill, so it did not leave spaces for a possible attack to be made without having to suffer a counterattack from the wall.

'It is simply beautiful to see such an architectural and defensive display, even we will have trouble designing a wall as effective as this one.

I have to think that once it's completed, it's going to be a pretty safe area to seek refuge in the event of a siege.

Not to mention that if the tribe's wall is expanded backward in the future, this wall could function as a defensive speck and last line of defense.

If Einar can build walls as he is around all the settlements he creates on the island, it will be virtually impossible to invade.

This will be a blessing for us merchants because a safe place to sell or buy will always be a priority. The last thing we want when we are trading is having to suffer attacks.

I think I will have to think very seriously about being able to make a trade agreement with Einar. I would even like to create an account with his bank as a sign of goodwill.

But for now, I think I'd like to see the construction inside before heading back to the village. '

When he finished thinking, Darían began to walk towards the gate of the wall, which was guarded by a small group of four warriors.

One of the guards was surprised when he could see a stranger walking towards where they were. When Darien got close enough he cleared his throat and said.

"Could I ask for permission to enter and see how the Palace is being built?"

The warrior paused for a moment before seeing one of his companions and remembering that it was very possibly the merchant Eskol had spoken to them.

"You must be Darían, right?

I'm glad you came, Eskol told us about you, you can come in and see how the construction is going as long as you remember to maintain order and not interrupt the slaves and warriors who are working. "

Darían nodded and looked at his guards with a smile "None of them will do anything against my will, so you can rest assured that we are not going to take any action that could be misinterpreted."

The guard sighed in relief "Thanks for accepting our little rules. I know they can be a bit annoying but if we don't follow them to the letter.

We will be punished, which is not something that is to our liking. "

They would give with some curiosity he looked at the warrior "If it is not an inconvenience, I would like to know what kind of punishment you can suffer because I feel that they are quite different from what we do."

The warrior took a deep breath remembering the last time he was punished "Our punishments changed quite a bit after Herald Einar established what he called the bases of the army.

In fact, thanks to that, the way we train changed, so now we have to do any training at dawn while singing some songs.

Established hours were also created to be able to take care of the village and the surroundings that required our presence, but that is not a point that I am trying to explain.

With the change made by the herald, we can be punished when we do not respect the rules or disobey an order from our superior.

The punishments range from having to make food for all of us to have to do work to help the population, such as helping to build or transporting materials.

The problem with punishments is that we have to fulfill them on our days off, but I have to admit that since we started carrying out the punishments.

All of us have improved a lot, of course, there are more extreme punishments but fortunately, no one has broken the rules to be able to suffer a trial in the assembly of the Thing. "

Darían paused for a moment 'Interesting way of training and punishment that Einar is using. It looks a lot like the training of our city's army.

But he seems to use strange elements. I suppose he could use some of his punishments to improve our training although I would have to discuss it with my father. '

After this, the warrior only looked at Darían for a few moments because he was thinking about some things. Only an exchange of looks with his guards was enough to know that it was something he did constantly.

So when he stopped thinking, the warrior made a sign to accompany him. When he stood in front of the door, it began to open, revealing a place completely under construction.

Unlike the tribe, where a slave or a builder could be seen from time to time carrying materials, at the palace construction site everyone was working in some way.

From the guards who were supervising to the slaves, who were carrying materials or tools from one place to another.

There were also some people who were resting and enjoying a meal, regardless of whether they were slaves or warriors.

As in the Darían tribe, he realized that none of them seemed to have sad looks. If not that on their faces you could see a hope that made them work with all their strength.

'I should talk to my father so that I can implement measures in some slaves so that they can obtain their freedom, although I doubt that will be enough. If I can get hope in their eyes maybe I can achieve great things.

But now that I think about it I think I'll have to comment on the fleet so I can bring in enough slaves and merchandise for sale, maybe it's a good idea to start recruiting sailors and fishermen to efficiently increase the quality of my boats. '

The warrior waited for Darían to recover from his thoughts and when he did, he took it upon himself to take Darían and his guards on a tour through the construction zone.

In which there were kilns for the preparation of bricks as some improvised huts for the rest of the guard and the slaves.
