The crowd's eager expressions seemed to stir something in the Pavilion Master.

The announcement sent waves of excitement through the gathering.
"Thank you, Lord Pavilion Master!" Thunderous cheers erupted across the courtyard.

Dozens of alchemists hurried after him—an unprecedented sight.
Mr. Adams, concealed in the darkness, watched the spectacle with shock.
"Where could they be headed?" Mr. Adams's brow creased.
