At the end the description there was a paper sign probably from the first viewer.
‘I am the man who commissioned a sculpture of my unborn daughter. Though I asked the sculptor to make this, truthfully I didn’t have much hope it would be done. I was grasping at straws when I made the request. The commission fee was only 1 copper. The sculptor created this sculpture based on my wife and I. I do not know what everyone will feel as they see this sculpture. But this sculpture has left a moving impression on us. Before seeing this, I felt life could be too cruel and irrational. Thank you for spending this moment in life with me.’
Visitors saw the dolls with reverence. People naturally viewed with appreciation and gratitude.
*Ding!*

The Arts Center’s first floor, second floor kept flooding visitors to the third floor. On the third floor visitors still kept going, but on the fourth floor no one wanted to leave. There was a line of people waiting for other people to leave. They looked at the dolls from birth, to school, to marriage, to having children, to death and heading back to the beginning. That cannot be resorted to life, the most precious things is those hours of happiness. Just like bright precious jewels the hours passed staring at the life. Nobody knows who started clapping, but soon the applause was thunderous.
“Darling, do you want to live here?”
Delphi first suggested after looking at the sculptures of her daughter. Even if she did return to the Central continent she had precious memories of the sculptures to cheer her up. Delphi asked concerned.
“Do you like this place?”
“Yes, I can feel the energy from the people. And it’s there’s adventure. The Central continent is under the concessions of the guilds who are endlessly warring. Considering the political stability the northern conflicts are small. The guilds are also new. People have lots of expedition, and exploration quests. The New products and hunting grounds are overflowing, and it’s really is too beautiful. I think I’d like to settle down here and hunt together like we used to do.”
They moved into a two-story stone house on the outskirts of the Morata district. There are many shacks in Morata so tenancy is high. For the first time parties of people could own a house. The first signs of moving people threw moving parties with food for the new tenants. Everybody who carries something gets something to eat. Houses with vistas were shockingly popular. The view was amazing even if the ceiling popped and cracked and leaked when it rained. Owning a poor shack was amazingly romantic. Women would come home from the Arts Center in tears.

“Starboard!
“If these conditions persist than we’ll be hit”
“Slow down!”
Las Phalanx had become bitterly cold. In the harsh cold, large pieces of ice floating around created a dangerous sea.
“Get your head straight. If the ship is damaged we’ll all fall in the water and freeze to death!”
“Fractal, where’s that glacier?”
“10 second, flowing from the right.”
“Preparing to turn to port. As soon as the glacier is past adjust the sails to the wind.”
The sailors hadn’t yet run into the thousands of glaciers only by the grace of god. The natural wonders were beautiful and dangerous at the same time. It was a dangerous voyage that had never been seen before.
*Mooooo!*
As the rest watched the incoming icebergs and fell into a complete panic Weed and rover were sitting and fishing comfortably.
“The Arts Center’s numbers of visitors are increasing exponentially.”
According to Pavo’s report the number exceeds 25,000 visitors a day. People are even lining up at dawn to get in.
‘In a sense the Arts Center is money. The construction cost for this time is significantly less. The other painters, sculptors, and performers should also share in the profits. Nevertheless, it is needless to say that there is a huge surplus from this. And the users in the north would all visit at least once because the sculpture of the girl’s life gave permanent stat increases. The 10 gold will be a burden on the novices but they will soon grow. And when they grow up more they will go to Art center before every time they go hunting.’
In the mean time the sewed leather armor needed by the beginners made money for the craftsman in the process. It was a key source of income and tax trade. However, for a piece artwork you could earn BIG money. For the first time in the history of the Versailles continent there was a revenue structure of the land based around art. It was not even an exaggeration to call it a revolution.
”The power of great art.”
The names of great artists stayed in history for 1 or 2 eras. More visitors creates more works, which creates more money. It was beautiful. Nice. Fantastic. Sublime. The sculptor profession was not poison! Weed laughed even as the icebergs raced towards him. (T/N In this they keep calling the icebergs glaciers. But glaciers don’t float into ships)
“If you have visitors visiting once a month then if you raise the price to 13 gold even more money could be made.”
“HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa.”
The jawbone was in extreme danger of falling off the crazily laughing skull. Gumeni and Rover seemed normal in comparison, but none of the ghost sailors could approach the bony shoulder.
“A good one sir.”
“The ocean is a grave to no one but you.”
The ghost crew had thoughts of pushing Weed in the sea, even though he would probably think of it as taking a bath.
“Kueh, he brought the Maria all this way, We’ll just have to demonstrate our power.”
“The sea is deep. He could just slide out and go missing.”
“The Captain!”
“Captain I now offer you to the sea”
The ghost crew’s loyalty after sailing for a long distance! But they would not soon better the far superior lich out of fear. The Left side was hit! An iceberg plunged into the side of the ship and tore a deep gouge. It was not part of the ghost that was underwater, but the state of the ghost ship had steadily worsened as they went along the waterway. Hye checked the condition of the hull and then said.
“Captain, we might have to suspend navigating to the destination. More and more icebergs are floating along; it’s inevitable that a big iceberg will hit the ship and we’ll immediately sink.”
That an iceberg could hit was intimidating enough. But there was small and large chunks of ice floating in the sea that continued to hit the ship thus accumulating damage. Paradoxically, the seaweed that was stuck to them prevented more damage.
