Editing ToP Chapter 85

= <span style="color: #FFFFFF !important;">Chapter Eighty-Five: Future's Witness Past</span> =

After a three-week journey with the Ergôtrîts family, Solineus arrives in Mulshuhar, a breathtaking coastal city on Kônu Bay, its red-gold domes gleaming under the sun. Overwhelmed by the bustling metropolis and its diverse populace, he exchanges his substantial coin hoard—gifted by King Sînhôlar the Ironwing—at a local bank, discovering it includes valuable Timôu (infused gold), making him unexpectedly wealthy with an estimated quarter million smedên. The bank clerk, recognizing his Emudar heritage, hints at prior dealings with his clan, stirring Solineus’s curiosity about his people’s presence in this distant city. Drawn to the docks, he searches for Silone or Emudar ships among the Luxun vessels, only to be stunned by a familiar voice: Hadin Elost, an Emudar from Choerkin Fost. More shocking is the man behind Hadin—Lord Adinvan Mikjehemlut, Solineus’s son, whose presence fulfills the Lady’s cryptic prophecy that his past and future await in Kônu Bay. As Solineus grapples with this emotional reunion, the weight of his journey and the mysteries of his identity converge, setting the stage for revelations about his clan’s history and his own forgotten past in this vibrant, unfamiliar world.
