Archer and Valariana appeared in the Emberport square as a market was underway. When the Homeguards spotted him, they saluted before continuing their patrols. The Chull Queen was glancing all over the place.
''People look happy husband,'' she muttered with wide eyes.
He chuckled and wrapped a cloak around the blonde. ''Here, take this, Vala. It's going to get cold as a normal storm is approaching the city,'' he said with a smile.
''Thank you,'' the older woman commaneted with a warm expression.
Following that, he led her through the streets as most of it was being dug up by the legionnaires and other soldiers. Foremen were ordering workers to unload materials for the road they were building.
Archer soon realized the legions were building out from the square and heading across their new lands. While staring at the ongoing work, Valariana commented with a sparkle in her eyes. ''I can get my Chull Workers to dig up this road and line it with the stones.''
