The next morning, Elder Manif was met by Dominic and a short man in a Royal Engineer's coat.
"Elder Manif, this is Engineer Marcos. He has just finished the upgrades of the Manor grounds, and he will be helping you build the schoolhouse while your Sect works on their tower." Dominic explained.
The Elders of the Duskblade Sect smiled. "Thank you for the consideration, Your Grace."
Letting them make their own tower meant that they could keep some of their secrets, and set the layout themselves, while the public areas of the schools would be created by the Royal Infrastructure team, saving them time.
"As I believe you heard last night, we have two weeks to get the school ready. The Crown Prince of Cygnia will be here then, and I want everything to be in place before his arrival.
Tell me now if you don't think that is possible." Dominic instructed.
