With sixty-four loads of valuables and treasures, including one precious painting by Kyle, it was a sight to behold. Silverstone Estate and Northwatch Estate were only two streets apart, and the Earl of Silverstone's family were also dispatching their dowry at the shour.
Viola was already dressed in her wedding attire, and she awaited the moment when Barrett and his entourage would cto collect her after the dowry had departed. She had sent someone to check whether Carissa's dowry had also been dispatched and to confirm if it matched the sixty-four loads.
Her maid, Yvonne, counted and confirmed that indeed there were sixty-four loads. Viola couldn't help but smile.
"Hmph, even the esteemed duke's daughter has a dowry less impressive than mine." She hadn't anticipated the value of Carissa's dowry, thinking it would merely consist of the usual items.
Just as Viola was feeling a sense of pride, the loud sound of drums sounded through the air as someone announced, "The Spencer family from Ebonflow has added to General Sinclair's trousseau-fifty bolts of brocade, three sets of gold and emerald headpieces, a pair of crystal figurines, and eighteen pairs of stag and dove motive bangles." Viola was startled.
Who was making such a commotion? Could this be a joke? Before she could send someone to investigate, another loud announcement echoed, "The Emerald Guild has added to General Sinclair's trousseau-two obsidian blades, one spear, a gold and emerald knife, and a box of gold and silver jewelry." The voice was clearly amplified by inner force, as it was even louder and more resonant than the drums.
The noble families in the area rushed out to see.
Indeed, there were people carrying large chests following behind the procession.
The first batch, held carefully with both hands, contained items that were clearly extremely valuable.
The second batch consisted mostly of weapons, which were also held with both hands and tied with white and gold silk ribbons. This batch seemed to belong to individuals from the martial world.

She suddenly ordered, "Quick, go see if Violet, Bun, Rod, and Cynthia are here... Lulu? Where's Lulu?" Lulu had already dashed out, running after the dowry procession as she sobbed.
Didn't they say they wouldn't come? Why did they only show up when the dowry procession was leaving? It caused Carissa unnecessary distress! Just as Lulu was about to catch up, the sound of drums rang out again.
"From the Lunar Guild to Lady Sinclair to add to her trousseau-a top-class martial arts expert as a bodyguard, eighteen jars of rose wine, and ten bolts of silk..."
Carissa almost cried upon hearing this. The Lunar Guild was the guild Travis was in. It was known for its poverty and all-female members, and was notorious for struggling even with rent.
They had sent a martial arts expert, who was most likely Travis.
