Mersood was a developing city, neither too big nor too small. But its potential for greatness was written in its geography. With the world getting shorter and shorter since it was connected through railway lines, it won't be long before industries slowly established themselves in this city, considering how it was stuck in the middle of multiple major cities and ports.
This is one of the reasons, Lausan Darde, the investigator of Mersood State Police and a Master Rank Mystic often found the old homes abandoned from time to time in his neighborhood. And nothing shady was going on, mind you, just simple land procurement before the city's golden age arrived. This means the price of the land in the city will only keep turning greater and more expensive.
This caused one to wonder, if none of these old town folks were foolish enough to abandon their homes so easily, they were sitting on a huge pile of gold that will only keep becoming deeper and deeper.
