Although we succeeded in rescuing Claudia, known as the Mad Tinker, from the Earth Elemental, the aftermath of the incident greatly shook the city of Minoc. While the intention had been to revive Minoc, whose mineral veins were gradually being depleted, the incident instead proved that Mountain Kendal did not entirely belong to humans, leaving many people deeply disappointed.

Perhaps because of this, many residents of Minoc began looking for someone to blame. Among the accusations was the claim that the improved bomb created by Claudia had caused an excessively powerful explosion, awakening the dormant Earth Elemental beneath the ground.

The mayor of Minoc and the Miner Union Guild also shifted the blame onto her in an attempt to minimize their own responsibility. However, it was true that they had secretly supported her plan and participated in it themselves. Considering that the number of casualties was relatively low, they decided not to send her to the Court of Justice. Instead, they punished her by stripping away her authority to manufacture explosives and confiscating her inventions.

To Claudia, however, this was nothing more than an insult, and she could not simply accept it. As an act of defiance, she decided to recreate the inventions that had been taken from her — and improve them into creations far greater than before.

**NOTE:
Please do not cast mass spells causing lag, except for combat purposes. It causes too much lag for the others and EM to proceed with the event scenario, potentially delaying the event.
Please do not cast Gate Travel to anyone nearby who may accidentally lead the others in. I’ve witnessed someone who did this intentionally multiple times, and such behavior shall not be tolerated in the future.
Please DO NOT SPAM while RPC is in conversation. It’s not only EM to continue, but also making it hard to follow up on the story.
If EM witnesses inappropriate actions, including those mentioned above, EM will address them; not just pause the event and warn them, but also report to GMs for further action.
