Chapter 405: 405. The Ebony City

Sylester's plan to collect the donations was good, but it needed much work to come to fruition. Firstly, he needed to find the whales and check how to access their coffers. That required time and some intelligence gathering. Thankfully, he knew their next destination would provide him with all the needed intel. 

With the money, Sylvester went to the Archbishop again. But to his amazement, the man was without his robes. He just wore pants and was cooking something on a giant fire in a huge pot. 

He roared various hymns that Sylvester wrote, and his beard and hair fluttered like a madman, but surprisingly the people jumped around the fire and cheered him on. It was like some barbarian festival was going on.
