The shock of the steam train lasted for a long time. The nobles who had originally planned to leave after congratulating Ronin on Roland's birth abruptly changed their plans.
Although they didn't understand the train, they knew of its immense potential. Given this, who wouldn't want to have such a "Divine Artifact" in their own territory?
So, for the next several days, the nobles were all consulting with Swamp Castle for relevant information, seeing if they could also build a train and lay down some railway lines in their own territories.
Chahar still presided over these business meetings, but Ronin was also present.
Something like a railway network needed to be led from the top down and required unified planning.
But the nobles here were equivalent to small, independent nations. If a line passed through one noble's territory and that noble, for some crazy reason, decided to cut the rails one day, the impact would be enormous.
